We're a purpose-driven company looking for curious, customer-focused sales professionals who are passionate about helping businesses grow, solving complex marketing challenges, and building a culture of belonging.
At Nextdoor, we operate in an AI-first environment. We value people who thoughtfully integrate AI into their daily work—not simply to automate tasks, but to improve decision making, deepen customer insights, and enhance execution. We look for candidates who combine AI curiosity with strong human judgment and accountability for the final outcome.
We also offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment model, blending an in office presence and work from home experience for our valued employees. The hiring team will go over these expectations with you if you are being considered for a role near one of our offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, New York, and London.
As a Client Partner, you'll play a critical role in driving growth across Nextdoor's Central region. You'll own a strategic territory across the region, building and growing relationships with leading brands and agencies, with a particular focus on Retail, QSR, and CPG advertisers, while identifying opportunities to expand Nextdoor's advertising business.
This is an opportunity for a strategic, results-oriented seller who thrives on building relationships, uncovering whitespace, and turning customer needs into meaningful business opportunities. You'll balance developing new business with growing existing partnerships, bringing a consultative approach to advertisers and agencies and helping them understand how Nextdoor can deliver against their marketing objectives.
You'll own the full sales cycle, from developing pipeline and cultivating relationships to closing business and growing long-term partnerships. Success in this role requires a proactive hunter mentality paired with strong account growth and strategic selling skills.
You'll also play an important role in shaping how advertisers think about local connection, bringing customer insights back to help inform Nextdoor's product innovation, go-to-market strategy, and continued growth.

Final compensation will be determined based on geographic location and level, in partnership with the hiring team.
