Agency Account Executive

Agency Account Executive Talent managers, agencies, and creator businesses are watching their clients' content get pirated, impersonated, and deepfaked in real time. They need a partner. You're it. About Ceartas Ceartas is the self-serve creator protection product built by Midnight Labs. We detect and remove piracy, impersonation, deepfakes, counterfeit listings, copyright infringement, and unauthorised content across search engines, marketplaces, social platforms, and the open web. Used by thousands of creators, talent agencies, and management companies worldwide. Ceartas is backed by Earlybird and Upside (Sidemen VC Firm). The Role As our Agency AE, you'll own the agency, talent management, and channel partner motion for Ceartas. You'll bring on the agencies that bring us their creator rosters - and you'll make sure those partnerships actually produce revenue, not just signed paper. This is a revenue role disguised as a partnerships role. We measure it on closed-won, not handshakes. What You'll Own Identify and close agency, talent management, and creator-business partnerships. Drive partner-led pipeline and revenue - onboarding, enablement, ongoing activation. Train agency teams to position and pitch Ceartas to their rosters. Run joint sales motions - co-presenting, proposals, deal support. Build the partner playbook: enablement, co-marketing, referral mechanics, commercial models. Maintain pipeline discipline and accurate partner-attributed forecasting in CRM. Represent Ceartas at creator economy, talent, and digital media events. Feed market intel back to product and marketing — what agencies need, what's missing, what's working. What Success Looks Like First 90 days: 10+ active agency partners onboarded.

Why This Matters The creator economy is worth over $250B and growing - and almost none of it is protected. Agencies and talent managers are waking up to the fact that their clients' content, identity, and likeness are being stolen and abused at scale. You're the person who shows up with the answer. Win the agencies, and you win the creators sitting underneath them.
