In this field-based role, you'll be the local face of the brand in key LA neighborhoods, including Central LA and the Westside/Silicon Beach corridor (Santa Monica to Playa Vista).

It's a great fit for someone who's energized by face-to-face conversations, thrives in a fast-moving environment, and knows the LA market well.

- Lead Generation — Identify and connect with prospective service providers in person, sourcing through online research, cold outreach, community engagement, and local networking.
- Sales Pitches — Deliver persuasive, in-person pitches that showcase the platform and its offerings, converting interest into signed submissions.
- Onboarding — Partner with cross-functional teams to guide new providers through initial onboarding, ensuring they're informed and set up for success.
- Market Insights — Gather insights from prospects and the local community to sharpen sales strategies and improve service offerings.
Qualifications
- 3–5 years of experience in sales, partnerships, or community engagement.
- Exceptional interpersonal skills, with comfort cold calling and starting conversations in a variety of settings.
- A curious, resourceful mindset and eagerness to test new tactics to source and close leads.
- Highly organized, able to manage multiple conversations and leads across platforms.
- A clear, positive, authentic communicator — both verbally and in writing.
- Motivated by helping local providers grow their businesses and reach new customers.
- Familiarity with community platforms (Facebook Groups, Reddit, Nextdoor) for engagement and lead generation.
- Experience working with small business owners, independent providers, or side-hustlers is a plus.
- Based in Los Angeles, with strong local market knowledge.
