They are seeking a Business Development Representative to help develop leads and support Account Executives, focusing on the Film, Television & Streaming sectors.
Responsibilities
- Monitor and qualify inbound leads generated through marketing campaigns targeting independent producers, mini-majors, and production companies — responding quickly, assessing fit, and routing qualified opportunities to the right Account Executive with context and conviction
- Use ProdPro, IMDbPro, and industry publications to track greenlights, new production slates, and emerging companies — turning production intelligence into outbound outreach with a real reason to connect
- Execute targeted outbound prospecting via phone, email, and LinkedIn to production accountants, line producers, UPMs, and finance coordinators — leading with relevance, not volume
- Validate and prioritize MQLs against territory and segment criteria before passing to AEs, so handoffs are clean and AE time is protected
- Partner closely with two to three assigned Account Executives to support expansion into new divisions, labels, or production slates within existing studio and production company relationships
- Maintain accurate pipeline records and prospect activity in Salesforce or HubSpot, including production status, contact history, and qualification notes
- Participate in sales training, product education, and deal review sessions — building the consultative selling foundation you'll need when you step into an AE role
- Bring market observations back to the team — production trends, competitive signals, and buyer feedback that help sharpen messaging and territory strategy
Skills
- 1–3 years of experience in a sales, business development, client-facing, or production-adjacent role
- Natural curiosity about the Film, Television & Streaming industry
- Strong written communication skills with the ability to craft outreach that feels tailored, not templated
- Comfort on the phone and in video calls
- Organized and self-directed, with the ability to manage a large and varied prospect list across different production stages and timelines
- Resilience and a growth mindset — you take feedback, adjust, and keep going
- Familiarity with Salesforce, HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, or similar tools is a plus; willingness to learn them quickly is a must
- Entertainment industry exposure is a genuine plus, not just a nice-to-have
Benefits
- Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO, health and wellness programs, employee discounts, and more! Note: Cast & Crew benefits are subject to eligibility requirements.
