[Hiring] Business Developer Manager - Sponsors & Affiliates @Crypto Banter

Role Description

We are not looking for a relationship manager who waits for inbound, files tidy decks, and calls it a quarter. We are not looking for someone who needs a sales playbook handed to them or who thinks "following up" means a single email chase. If your idea of pipeline management is a CRM full of hopeful conversations that never close, this is not your role.

What we are building at Boost by Banter is a commercial engine with real teeth. You will be responsible for the full sponsorship and partnerships pipeline:

• Identifying crypto projects and advertisers with live marketing budgets.
• Pitching them into Banter's media channels.
• Managing KOL deal flows concurrently.
• Ensuring every campaign actually delivers.

You will be joining a small, growing team at a media brand that millions of crypto-native people already follow and trust. That brand equity is real, and it is yours to leverage from day one.

Qualifications

• Native crypto market knowledge: Understand the difference between a vanity integration and a high-converting campaign.
• Hunter sales mentality: Self-source leads through conferences, Telegram groups, and a warm Rolodex.
• KOL and affiliate management experience: Manage multiple KOL relationships concurrently.
• Stable commercial tenure in Web3: 3+ years in BD, partnerships, or sales roles within crypto.
• Geographic and community presence: Based in a genuine Web3 hub with access to regional conference circuits.
• Operational self-sufficiency: Comfortable integrating into existing content and admin workflows.

Requirements

• Own the full sales pipeline: Source, qualify, pitch, negotiate, and close new crypto project sponsors, KOLs, and affiliates.
• Build and work a live prospect list: Drive outreach proactively via Telegram BD communities, Crypto Twitter, and conference floors.
• Manage concurrent KOL deal flows: Execute multiple KOL partnerships simultaneously.
• Ensure campaign execution lands: Coordinate with Banter's content and operations teams.
• Report performance with precision: Deliver detailed post-campaign reports to sponsors.
• Hit a hard number: Work toward a consistent $150k–$200k monthly revenue target per BD.
