Bisnow is the leading B2B media platform powering the commercial real estate industry. We connect CRE professionals through award-winning news, high-impact events, marketing solutions, recruiting services, and sales enablement tools that drive real business results.
With 1.7M+ subscribers and 400+ events annually across 47 markets in the U.S., Canada, the UK, Ireland, and the Netherlands, we don’t just cover the industry, we help move it forward.

About Escape, Ascent & Elevate
Escape, Ascent, and Elevate are Bisnow’s invite-only gatherings for the industry’s top investors and developers. Most CRE events still run on panels and business cards. For the past decade, our retreats have rewritten that playbook — changing how investors and developers actually connect throughout the year.
Escape — the most exclusive community of CRE owners, developers, and investors in the country.
Ascent — the next generation of CRE decision-makers, under 45, with $4T+ in combined AUM.
Elevate — the national young professionals network for CRE analysts, associates, and directors.
The Role

Reporting to the SVP of Executive Retreats — who’s spent a decade building this business — you’ll own a full sales cycle each of our retreats: prospecting, pitching, and closing new members and sponsors, then managing those relationships year over year.
You’ll be on the phone and in the room with the CEOs, principals, and CIOs who run the CRE industry, and increasingly, with the capital and infrastructure players moving into adjacent spaces like data cente
