About Gradient
What Gradient's sellers bring in is agency work: pop-ups, trade booths, company meetings and multi-day conferences, sold to brand marketing departments at names such as L'Oréal, Kiehl's, Suntory Global Spirits, William Grant & Sons and the Wall Street Journal. New business runs through the CEO and founder, and the SDR seat is a phone job: call brands that have an RFP out or an event planned three to four months ahead and book meetings for leadership to pitch. Growth on existing clients sits with a Director of Client Growth, a director-level individual contributor with no reports who owns retention and expansion across accounts billing $1M or more in annual gross income and opens doors to sister brands inside them. Below that, the Account Services team runs day-to-day client relationships, with an account manager, a senior account manager and a freelance account manager posted, and these seats flag upsell openings to sales rather than carry a quota. It hires its sellers in New York, the account manager seat listed as the Tri-State area, though the agency also keeps offices in Los Angeles, Miami and Paris.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Gradient
Stated by the company, checked 2026-11-07From our research: stated by the company, checked 7 Nov 2026
Read from its postings on 7 Nov 2026: Gradient's New York postings print pay in three shapes. The SDR seat pairs a base salary with uncapped commission on the clients it closes and shows an OTE range above the base; the Director of Client Growth gets a base range plus a bonus of 25 to 35% of base, paid on retaining and growing annual gross income across the assigned accounts, with the OTE printed too. Account manager and senior account manager seats are straight salary with a range and no variable pay, and the freelance account manager listing is a contract that names no rate. On the SDR seat, ask how many closed clients the top of the OTE assumes; on the director seat, ask how the retention and growth targets are set for the book you inherit.
