Senior Partnerships & Growth Manager - Southern California (Remote)

IS THIS YOU?

You are a senior partnerships professional with a track record of exceeding targets and the instinct to bring others up with you.

You have managed or mentored junior reps, owned a complex book of business end-to-end, and know how to balance individual performance with team leadership.

You want a role where both things are valued equally.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Linkby is expanding its Southern California team and looking for a Senior Partnerships Manager to anchor our So Cal presence.

This is a senior full-cycle role with team leadership responsibility.

You will carry your own high‑value book of business from prospecting through close, onboarding, and long‑term account ownership, while coaching and developing junior team members in the region.

Part of what makes this role exciting is what you will be selling.

Linkby is not catching up to this shift.

We are leading it.

You will be working with advertisers at the forefront of AI Visibility / Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), helping them understand and act on a category that most of the market is still figuring out.

Remote role with occasional We Work days and team outings. Must be based in Southern California.
