Junior Commercial Associate, Works in Progress
Stripe · London

## **Who we are**

### **About Stripe**

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.

### **About the team**

Works in Progress is Stripe's magazine of new and underrated ideas to improve the world. We publish an eclectic mix of articles on policy, economics, business, technology, science, history, arts and culture, published online and in print. We have a fast-growing global audience, primarily in tech, finance and politics, and we are building out the team across editorial, design, operations and commercial.

## **What you’ll do**

This is an entry-level commercial role for a recent graduate who is ambitious, organised and excited to learn quickly in a small, entrepreneurial team.

You will work closely with the Director of Commercial and Audiovisual across the magazine’s commercial activity: advertising, subscriptions, events, marketing and partnerships. You will help keep commercial projects moving by conducting research, supporting outreach, maintaining pipelines and trackers, following up with prospective partners, and contributing to growth experiments.

You will learn by doing: writing outbound emails, building target lists, preparing materials, tracking results, joining calls and following up consistently. It is a strong opportunity for someone who wants early exposure to senior commercial work and meaningful responsibility from the start of their career.

### **Responsibilities**

- Support the advertising sales process, including preparing rate cards, pitch decks, outreach and pipeline materials.
- Research and build target lists of potential advertisers, sponsors, agencies, founders, investors and partners.
- Draft clear, thoughtful outbound emails and follow-ups.
- Maintain accurate CRM records, commercial trackers and reporting.
- Support subscription growth through acquisition and retention ideas, and help measure their effectiveness.
- Help develop the events business, including sponsor research, partnership outreach and event planning support.
- Assist with early marketing and growth experiments across paid acquisition, referrals, partnerships, direct mail and audience development.
- Prepare decks, reports and briefing materials that help commercial conversations move forward.
- Join meetings and calls with clients, partners and agencies, taking notes and supporting follow-up.
- Help turn commercial ideas into clear proposals with pricing, positioning and next steps.
- Work across sales, marketing, events and subscriptions, adapting quickly as priorities evolve.
- Take on the practical, sometimes unglamorous work needed to help a small business grow.

## **Who you are**

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

### **Minimum requirements**

- Is a recent graduate, or has equivalent early-career experience.
- Is excited by commercial work a
