Vendor Growth Consultant & Community Manager

Overview

Marketopia is building an AI-powered growth engine for MSPs and technology vendors. Rather than a traditional distributor, we empower MSPs to create demand, register deals, close sales, and scale recurring revenue through a curated portfolio of AI vendors and AI-enabled services. Our vendors invest in Marketopia to accelerate their channel growth, while MSP partners rely on us to help them position, sell, and monetize AI. We are seeking a revenue‑focused Community Manager to scale this ecosystem. As a 10x Inc. 5000 honoree and a pioneer in AI-driven agency operations, AI is integrated into how we work, what we sell, and how we grow our clients. If you’re energized by what AI makes possible for a marketing team, you’ll thrive here.
