Acceler8 Labs is where growth gets personal.

We’re a growth marketing company founded by two former Facebookers who decided to build something better after seeing the gap between traditional agencies and the real needs of up-to-date brands.

We believe scale isn’t about bigger budgets but smarter decisions. Our team has helped brands across the globe generate over $1 billion in revenue by combining sharp strategy, bold creativity, and hands‑on execution.

We’re designed for the digital era, where everything evolves at the speed of light. Our work evolves alongside it, adapting to the industries, platforms, and audiences we help grow.

We partner with some of the world’s fastest-growing brands, from disruptive startups to global household names, to turn marketing spend into measurable business growth.

About the Role We’re looking for a full-time Business Development Manager who can turn great work into consistent growth.

You’ll take qualified opportunities and turn them into long‑term client relationships, leading conversations from discovery through to proposal, negotiation, and close. You’ll speak directly with founders, CMOs, Heads of Growth, and other senior decision‑makers, digging into how their businesses actually grow and where Acceler8 can make a meaningful difference.

This is a senior, sales‑focused role for someone who understands growth marketing beyond the campaign level. You’ll connect paid media, creative, conversion, retention, and measurement to the commercial realities of a business, then translate those opportunities into a compelling reason to work with Acceler8.

You’ll support the top of funnel through prospecting and lead generation,



as well as Acceler8’s founders and leadership team on high‑value opportunities, proposals, pricing, and closing strategy.

As a Business Development Manager, you will:

Take ownership of qualified opportunities, leading the sales process from discovery through to proposal, negotiation, and close

Lead thoughtful discovery conversations with founders, CMOs, Heads of Growth, and other senior decision‑makers to understand their business objectives, growth constraints, marketing challenges, and commercial priorities

Look beyond individual campaigns to understand the broader business, including customer acquisition, retention, AOV, CAC or CPA, LTV, MER, ROAS, conversion rate, channel mix, and profitability

Identify where Acceler8 can create meaningful value across paid media, creative strategy, measurement, conversion, channel expansion, or broader growth strategy

Navigate conversations with prospects who may already have an internal marketing team or agency partner, building a credible case for why a different approach may drive stronger results

Develop and present tailored proposals that connect Acceler8’s services directly to the prospect’s business goals and growth opportunities

Partner closely with our Growth Development Representative on lead quality, Ideal Customer Profile refinement, prospect insights, and opportunities moving through the pipeline

Collaborate with Acceler8’s leadership team on sales strategy,



pricing, proposals, and high‑value opportunities

Maintain disciplined CRM management and accurate visibility across opportunities, conversion, expected revenue, and pipeline health

Use HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, Google Workspace, and other sales and prospecting tools to research opportunities and maintain an organized sales process

Represent Acceler8 at conferences, dinners, networking events, and other opportunities to build relationships and strengthen our presence in the market

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

Have 5-10 years of experience in business development or sales, including at least 3 years working within a media, advertising, performance marketing, ecommerce, or growth-focused agency environment

Have sold marketing or agency services and understand how DTC and ecommerce businesses grow, not simply how individual advertising campaigns are managed

Can confidently discuss metrics such as revenue, AOV, CAC or CPA, LTV, MER, ROAS, conversion rate, retention, and contribution margin, and understand how they connect to the economics of a business

Understand how paid media fits into a broader growth strategy spanning creative, conversion, retention, promotions, merchandising, CRM, organic channels, marketplaces, and other acquisition channels

Can look at a business, ask intelligent questions, identify potential growth constraints, and translate those challenges into opportunities Acceler8 may be able to solve

Are a strong consultative seller who can build credibility with founders and senior marketing leaders without relying on a scripted pitch

Are comfortable selling into organizations th
