Employer job description
From Lavendo's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Lavendo partners with startups and high‑growth companies to help them hire top‑tier sales, GTM, and technical talent. This role is with one of our clients; we’ll share full details about the company and interview process as we get to know you and confirm mutual fit.
About the Company
Our client is a seed-stage event commerce company with $16M in funding and backing from Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). The platform combines tickets, merchandise, drinks, tables, and sponsorship placements with affiliate tracking and automatic commission payouts. Organizers can manage more of their event business in one place and reward the people driving sales.
The Mission
Help organizers earn more from every event and make it easier for the people behind local events and nightlife to grow their businesses.
The Opportunity
As a Business Development Manager
, you’ll help grow the local events and nightlife business by turning your relationships with promoters, venue owners, and organizers into new accounts. You’ll introduce a platform that gives them more ways to monetize their events, negotiate commercial terms, and own the customer relationship from first conversation through launch.
Reporting to the Head of Business Development, you’ll work directly with leadership and help shape the sales approach as the business grows. You’ll have autonomy over your pipeline and the opportunity to build on the company’s visibility across music and entertainment, including Lil Wayne featuring the platform in his Instagram bio and a signed WWE contract.
What You'll Do
- Bring on new organizers and venues through your existing relationships.
- Run product demos, build a compelling business case, and close deals.
- Negotiate commercial terms, including fee splits, guarantees, and exclusivity.
- Support onboarding and help new accounts get their first events running.
- Grow your pipeline through referrals, targeted outbound, and direct outreach.
- Build account plans grounded in realistic ticketing volume, current provider relationships, and contractual commitments.
