Brand Marketer

Anvara is the marketplace where brands discover, evaluate, and close sponsorship deals across sports & live events. We work with brands like Delta, Brex, Kalshi, GoPuff, BeReal, and properties like the Chicago Cubs, Colorado Rockies, LAFC, the Wynn, and Major League Pickleball. We've raised $4M from Game Changers Ventures - Roger Ehrenberg's $100M sports-tech fund. Roger was a seed investor in Trade Desk ($30B), Datadog ($40B) and Wise ($9B). We're also backed by Marquee Ventures (Chicago Cubs ownership group), Sequel, Bryan Rosenblatt (early investor in Robinhood, ClickUp, Carta), Jonathan Opdyke (founded and sold a company for $250M), and other industry heavyweights on both the brand and property side. Sponsorship is a $100B+ global market that still runs on cold emails, spreadsheets, and handshake deals. There's no centralized place to buy it the way you buy digital media. We're building that place. Our Culture You can't do ordinary things and expect extraordinary results. Our goals are moon shots. We bring that same intensity to the day-to-day. We're customer-obsessed: we listen, we watch behavior, we iterate fast, and we deliver 11-Star Service to our customers. We take full ownership of everything we touch. No task is beneath us. We care about outcomes like they're personal, because they are. We value originality and thoughtful dissent, and above everything: high agency. If you're the kind of person who turns ambiguity into forward motion, you'll thrive at Anvara. The Role You’ll be the person who turns Anvara into the standard. Right now, the sponsorship industry is waking up to the fact that its entire infrastructure is about to move online. We’re the company making that happen. But most of the market hasn’t heard of us yet. That’s what you’re here to change. This is Anvara’s first dedicated marketing hire. You won’t inherit a playbook, you’ll write one. You’ll own everything that shapes how the world sees Anvara: our LinkedIn presence, our podcast, our newsletter, the events we host, the materials we put in front of brands. You’ll build the brand and the engine that drives demand to our marketplace. The bigger picture: sponsorship is one of the last major media categories that hasn’t been digitized. There’s a massive wave coming, brands are fatigued by digital ads, experiential marketing spend is accelerating, and an entire generation of marketers expects to buy everything online. We’re positioned at the center of that shift. Your job is to make sure every brand marketer, every CMO, every agency strategist knows that Anvara is the gold standard for the way that sponsorships are discovered, purchased, and measured. You’ll work directly with the founders. Your ideas will shape how we show up in the market. Your content will be the first thing a brand sees before they ever talk to our sales team. In a marketplace, demand is the ultimate currency, and you’re the person who generates it. What You'll Do Own Anvara’s brand across every channel. LinkedIn, podcast, newsletter, website, events, collateral Build and run our LinkedIn presence. This is our highest-performing organic channel. You’ll craft the content strategy, write posts, and grow the audience of brand marketers and industry leaders who follow Anvara. Launch and produce our podcast from scratch. Concept it, book guests, produce episodes, and build it into a destination for people in sponsorship and brand marketing. Take over the “Broken Marketing” newsletter. Write it, grow it, and turn it into the weekly read for anyone in sponsorship. Create marketing materials that make brands want to work with us - pitch decks, one-pagers, case studies, and whatever else the moment demands. Produce and run events Anvara hosts - intimate dinners, industry gatherings, moments that put Anvara at the center of the conversation. Build the demand engine. Figure out what channels, tactics, and content drive brand marketers to Anvara. Test it, measure it, double down on what works. Feed insights back to the product team. You’ll be closer to how brands perceive us than anyone Who You Are You’ve made something work. Maybe it’s a brand you built, a content channel you grew, a campaign that broke through, or a project outside of work that shows what you’re capable of. We care less about years on a resume and more about evidence that you win. You have a sharp eye. The details matter to you; the font on a deck, the pacing of a sentence, the way a brand shows up at an event. When something looks off, it bothers you. You think in systems. A LinkedIn post is not a LinkedIn post - it’s a piece of a broader strategy that builds an audience, earns trust, and drives people to a marketplace. You’re resourceful. You’ll need to get creative about how we show up and take risks that drive outsized demand. You know the world we operate in. You go to events. You follow brands. You have opinions about activations you see in the wild. You have high agency. When something isn’t working, you fix it. When there’s no process, you build one. When you’re not sure what the right move is, you make your best bet and adjust.
