About the role

As a Brand Partner, you’ll help new clients turn a business need into a thoughtful merchandise program. This is Stitchi’s account executive role, focused on discovery, new business, and identifying growth opportunities. You’ll build trust with buyers and work with Account Managers and Account Coordinators to turn qualified opportunities into approved work.

What you’ll do

• Develop new opportunities through inbound inquiries, focused outreach, referrals, and relationship building.
• Lead discovery with Marketing and HR buyers to understand their audience, goals, budget, timing, and decision process.
• Connect client needs to merchandise ideas, gifting programs, events, and employee experiences; present a clear recommendation and next step.
• Work with the account team on proposals, samples, and pricing that balance brand fit, delivery feasibility, and margin.
• Guide commercial conversations through a decision, confirm commitments in writing, and bring exceptions to the appropriate approver.
• Keep opportunity records, forecasts, and follow-ups current so the team knows what is likely to close and what is needed next.
• Introduce the Account Manager with clear client context and identify further growth opportunities together as the relationship develops.

What you’ll bring

• Experience in sales, account management, or another client-facing role; 1–3 years is helpful.
• Confidence starting conversations, asking thoughtful questions, presenting recommendations, and asking for a decision.
• Reliable follow-through across several opportunities and comfort keeping a CRM up to date.
• Interest in physical products, design, and how companies use merchandise to connect with people.
• Promotional products, agency, events, or B2B service experience is a plus.

What success looks like

You build a qualified pipeline, win profitable new work, and give the account team a clear understanding of what each client expects. Prospects receive useful recommendations and timely follow-up.
