The Role

We are seeking a sophisticated Senior Account Executive to join us as an independent sales partner. Traditional television models often gamble millions on assumptions; we use advanced streaming metrics and data-backed validation to optimize our five-series production blocks before a camera ever rolls.

In this role, your focus is entirely on pipeline execution and deal finalization. You will step into pre-scheduled, qualified meetings with major television networks, SVOD streaming platforms, and enterprise brand partners to guide them through our pre-production bibles/pitch decks and secure formal distribution and co-production agreements.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead Creative Pitch Sessions: Lead high-level discovery meetings and presentations with media buyers, development heads, and network executives.
• Present Concept Decks: Guide decision-makers smoothly through our analytical concept validation frameworks, positioning our content slates as highly secure, de-risked media assets.
• Navigate Licensing Discussions: Handle complex corporate discussions regarding content windowing, licensing, demographic target alignment, and production timelines.
• Secure Distribution Commitments: Drive conversations from initial discovery through contract negotiation, overseeing high-value distribution pricing structures and closing sequences.

What We’re Looking For:

• Enterprise B2B or Media Sales Track Record: Proven experience managing and securing mid-to-high-figure corporate contracts, agency accounts, or entertainment distribution deals.
• Executive Presence: Exceptional presentation and communication skills with the ability to command a boardroom and build immediate rapport with corporate leadership.
• Consultative Relationship Style: Because our brand is built on deep trust and multi-year partnerships, you must possess a highly sophisticated, consultative approach to business development.

Project Timeline and Structure

This is an uncapped, commission-based (1099) contract position designed to highly reward senior enterprise sales capabilities. Because you are stepping directly into a pipeline with pre-booked corporate leads, you have an immediate path to monetization. Our explicit strategic intent is to transition this business development partner into a permanent, salaried full-time executive position with equity potential as our active portfolio sales scale.

Our Mission and Alignment

We are explicitly engineered to serve the faith-inspired, family, and values-driven entertainment market. We believe that family-focused entertainment should never sacrifice premium, cinematic taste. You do not need to have prior experience working within faith-based media to thrive here. However, you must be someone who can genuinely respect this demographic, get behind our mission, and effectively position our enterprise solutions to major television networks and digital streaming platforms.
