VentureBeat continues to grow. Our traffic has more than doubled over the past few months, and we’ve expanded our activities.
So we want someone to help manage our business side. We’d first like to ask you – our community of readers – whether any of you are interested, or whether you can recommend someone.
We’re calling this position “VP of Sales and Business Development” because the person will both 1) drive advertising sales and sponsorship relationships and 2) pursue other revenue opportunities.
(By the way, we’re also still looking for more writers, an event organizer, interns and other help. See here.)
We’re looking for a self-starter business person, someone who has their own ideas, but who will enjoy working with the VentureBeat team to take it to the next level.
The person will engage with the entrepreneur and startup community VentureBeat serves.
Compensation will be a mix of salary, equity, and commission.
Aside from ad sales, we see a number of other possibilities for business development, including more events, syndication strategy and other Web site resources we’re already planning. The successful candidate will take the lead in negotiating all contracts and partnership agreements.
If you’re interested, please contact Matt Marshall: matt at venturebeat dot com, and write “JOB” in the subject line.
