    About this role

    Material Bank is the world’s largest material marketplace for the architecture and design industry. Operating in 37 countries, our platform has become the standard for design professionals around the globe. Every day, Material Bank connects thousands of designers with tens of thousands of materials from leading brands.

    Material Bank is the fastest and most powerful way for design professionals to search, sample, and specify materials.

    As Senior Account Executive, you will play a critical role in accelerating Material Bank’s growth by expanding our brand partner ecosystem. This role is focused on acquiring new brand partners and building long-term relationships with both emerging and established brands, using strong judgment to prioritize brands/products that align with our platform and what design professionals need most.

    You will bring industry credibility, established relationships, and a consultative mindset to communicate how Material Bank delivers value throughout the material selection journey, through brand visibility, seamless sampling, and data-driven insights.

    This is a senior, external facing role for someone who knows the A&D landscape, understands how brands sell into the design community, and values that many lasting partnerships are built in person. You thrive in face-to-face conversations, on-site meetings, and industry events, doing whatever it takes to earn trust, build credibility, and move opportunities forward.

    This position is remote (East Coast) and will require at least 50% travel.
