The Hustle 

The Hustle is a modern information company working to build a direct relationship with the 80M+ professionals in the US. Specifically, we’re starting with business news, information, and analysis.  

We are completely changing how digital media brands build brand loyalty. And you, as one of our early hires, will help us get to where we need to go.

Here’s how it works 

Each morning, we send our daily business news email, The Hustle Daily, to an incredibly large and loyal audience. And, at just over three years old, we’re one of the fastest growing media brands in the country. 

While we currently monetize our audience through large advertising deals with brands like Microsoft and Salesforce, we're now launching subscription products and services for our audience of builders and tinkerers. 

It’s our belief that the next CNN, Fox, or NBC (what we want to become) will need a large, loyal audience, a voice that is trusted, and revenue that is diversified. This is what we are working towards. 

The Role 

This posting is for a full-time Account Manager position, remote OK. 

Two of The Hustle's key revenue drivers are advertising and sponsorships. Our Sales team seeks like-minded advertising partners who believe in our voice and who have products and services our community enjoys and wants.
