Partner Account Executive (Digital Advertising Sales) - US Remote - PST/MST

Yelp is on the hunt for a driven, high-energy sales professional to join our fast-growing Partner Sales team. This is not your typical Account Executive role-this is a pure hunter position focused on identifying, prospecting, and closing new agency partnerships that serve small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

As a Partner Account Executive, you'll be on the front lines of Yelp's growth, pitching our advertising solutions to digital marketing agencies that want to help their clients win locally. You'll be building relationships from the ground up, crafting compelling pitches, and showing agencies how Yelp's platform-including our API capabilities-can drive real results for their advertisers.

If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-impact environment, love the thrill of the chase, and are passionate about digital advertising-this role is for you. At Yelp, your hustle is celebrated, your wins are shared, and your career path is yours to shape.

Please note that while this role is a remote position, it is required that the candidate resides within the Mountain or Pacific time zones of the continental US. (Excluding the SF Bay area)
