Manager, Growth
Brooklyn, NYWork & Co (work.co) solves complex problems and drives business forward —through end-to-end strategy, design and development of their core digital products. With a team over 500 and offices in the United States, Latin America, and Europe, we’ve become the go-to partner for IKEA, Google, Apple, Gatorade, PGA TOUR, Mercedes, MTA, Planned Parenthood, and more. As Fast Company noted, our engineering and design teams are routinely entrusted with creating digital products for companies which rarely approach outside firms. Forrester Research calls our approach “a model to follow.”
We’re seeking a Manager, Growth to join our team. This new role is based in our Brooklyn office and will work with our global team focusing on North American and European opportunities.
Our Manager, Growth isn’t a salesperson. You are a curator who can pinpoint the ideal partner opportunities for Work & Co - striving to match our capabilities and our style of working with clients through an iterative design and development process. We’re hyper-focused on helping top companies create the core digital products that drive them forward. To do this, you will work with cross-functional teams and the most senior leaders both internally and client-side to prioritize and manage multiple tracks of work at any one time.
This person must be passionate about digital products and their impact. You deeply understand and know how to fluently communicate how our distinct approach to digital product design and development can transform a client’s business both in writing and in-person. You bring to meetings a solid understanding of our unique offering in the market, along with our processes and workflow, enabling you to strategically vet and respond to inbound inquiries. In addition, you always have an eye on new opportunities and areas where our capabilities can create a positive impact.
What You Will Do
- Be an initial point of contact for new client opportunities, while managing timelines across multiple potential engagements
- Collaborate across internal cross-functional teams to define and create business development materials, including pitch documents, presentation decks, and case studies. You’ll work directly with company leadership as well as our new business and marketing team.

- Define POVs around new business leads detailing the areas of opportunity and strategic winning approach (to be shared with the Growth and leadership teams).
- Craft case studies, manage our content repositories, and maintain our business development database to ensure we have an accurate picture for our CRM efforts.
- Manage pitches and proposals from start-to-finish, including the development of pitch strategies alongside product management, strategy, design, and engineering teams.
- Track creative and business trends to spot opportunities to smartly target potential client partners across a variety of industries.
We Are Looking For
- 3-5 years of experience in a business development role. Ideally, you also have agency or consulting experience.
- Self-starter: Someone who thrives in a deadline-oriented environment and is highly organized. You can manage multiple tasks with ease, strategically prioritize them, and analyze opportunities to make recommendations on approaches.
- Demonstrated self-starter comfortable trying new things, quick to learn new skills, and able to proactively identify new opportunities.
- Proven ability to identify trends, patterns, and insights from data, and then devise ways to turn insight into action.
- Well-versed in technology. Since we are a digital product company, you have to understand what we do to be successful.
