About Automattic
Automattic is the company behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, Jetpack, Day One and Pocket Casts, yet its sales hiring comes down to two products: WordPress VIP, the enterprise content platform its site says more than 700 enterprises run on, and Pressable, its WordPress hosting brand. VIP account executives hunt new Global 2000 logos and expand current accounts, pitching CMOs and CTOs, building much of their own pipeline beside SDRs and marketing, and closing anything from transactional renewals to multimillion-dollar deals; a newer public sector AE near Washington DC carries VIP's FedRAMP authorization into government agencies, RFP paperwork and procurement rules included. A second track runs through Automattic for Agencies, the agency partner program, where a partner manager recruits, onboards and grows a portfolio of digital agencies across the whole product suite and a senior partner manager runs a book of premier agencies with the weight on VIP revenue, renewals and net revenue retention. The one entry seat is a Pressable BDR who answers inbound leads by call, email and chat, books meetings for senior sellers against a monthly qualified-meeting target and is expected to lean on AI tools for research and follow-ups. All 5 sales openings are remote, out of only 12 postings on the board.
