About Polymarket
Company context from the listing:
Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market platform. We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs.
We're growing fast, both in terms of volume ($21B traded in 2025) and adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire.
About the Role
Day-to-day scope for the Partnership Manager, Media as described in the posting:
We've signed million-dollar deals with some of the biggest names in media, including the Wall Street Journal, Substack, StockTwits, and RealClearPolitics. Right now, nobody owns the day-to-day execution on these relationships.
You'll sit inside the Marketing team and report directly to the Head of Marketing. This is not a strategy-only role.
The ideal candidate has sat on the other side of this equation. You've worked at a media company, you've managed brand partners, and you know from experience which placements actually drive results and which ones just look good in a deck.
What You'll Do
Day-to-day scope for the Partnership Manager, Media as described in the posting:
- Own day-to-day relationships with active media partners including WSJ, Substack, StockTwits, and RealClearPolitics, keeping integrations on schedule and deals delivering full value.
- Coordinate creative and copy updates across all partner placements, making sure assets reflect our content calendar and are refreshed consistently.
- Track and report weekly on referral traffic, brand mentions, and placement performance across all active partners, flagging what's working and what needs to change.
- Identify and pitch new media partners across finance, politics, crypto, and tech, building a pipeline of targets that make sense for where Polymarket is heading.
- Walk new partners through technical integrations including APIs, iFrames, and SDKs, serving as the connective tissue between their teams and ours.
- Think through the full execution of each partnership, from asset strategy to placement logic, and push partners to use our content in ways that actually move the needle.
- Build and maintain a tracking system that shows how each partner is using our integrations throughout the year and surfaces opportunities to expand or renew deals.
What We're Looking For
- 3 to 5 years of experience in partnership management, project management, or a closely related role within media or marketing.
- Prior experience working at a media company such as Morning Brew, TechCrunch, or a comparable outlet where you worked directly with brand or advertising partners.
- Demonstrated track record of managing high-value media partnerships end to end, including renewals and expanded deals, not just onboarding.
- Enough technical fluency to walk a partner through API documentation, iFrame setups, or SDK integration without needing a hand from engineering every time.
- Strong organizational habits. You can manage multiple active partners simultaneously without things falling through the cracks.
- Clear, direct communicator who can write a good brief, give useful feedback on creative, and keep partners accountable without letting relationships go sideways.
- (Plus) You've worked on the brand or partner side at a media outlet and understand how sponsorship and integration decisions actually get made internally.
- (Plus) You have existing relationships with editorial or partnership contacts at major outlets in finance, politics, or tech.
- (Plus) You have experience in prediction markets, crypto, or financial media and understand the audience we're trying to reach.
