Role summary

MPLC, a leader in public performance licensing for movies and TV, is seeking a Small Business Account Executive to drive outbound sales growth across the U.S. This fully remote, metrics-driven role involves managing the full sales cycle from cold prospecting to closing new small business accounts. The ideal candidate is a resilient, tenacious, and autonomous hunter with 1-2+ years of B2B sales or cold-calling experience, comfortable with high activity and hitting quotas. Familiarity with sales tools like Salesforce, Outreach, and Gong is a plus. The role focuses on securing compliance for businesses showing content legally while ensuring creators are paid fairly.

MPLC provides a legal way to show movies and TV in public or commercial spaces across the globe. Our business has been running for 30 years, and we are the number one trusted partner to studios and producers for public performance licensing. We work with every major Hollywood studio and hundreds of independents, and we work hard to educate organizations about the importance of respecting copyright. MPLC is a key player in the entertainment and intellectual property ecosystem.

Our aim is to allow companies to use great movie and programming content while ensuring that content creators get paid fairly for their work.

We are on a truly exciting journey as a company. We’re growing quickly, investing in our teams, and we have bold plans to make 2026 our best year ever. As part of our growth, we are hiring a Small Business Account Executive.

The job in two bullet points:
  • Drive Outbound Growth: Own a high-volume outbound sales desk, prospecting, cold calling, and closing new small business accounts across U.S. time zones.
  • Secure Compliance: Help businesses protect themselves legally while showing movies and TV in commercial spaces.
This is a high-activity, metrics-driven outbound role spanning multiple time zones (PST through EST). You will manage a full sales cycle from cold prospecting to close. It requires thick skin, daily consistency, and a passion for hitting quotas.
  • The Hunter: You thrive on building your own pipeline from scratch rather than waiting for warm leads. You don't need hand-holding.
  • Resilient & Tenacious: You bounce back immediately from rejection, handle high call volumes without losing momentum, and remain thoughtful and empathetic with prospects.
  • Experienced: 1–2+ years of B2B sales or cold-calling experience. Familiarity with sales tools like Salesforce, Outreach, and Gong is a strong plus.
  • Autonomous & Collaborative: Self-sufficient in a fully remote environment while staying a supportive team player.
  • Compensation: $60,000 - $70,000 base salary + uncapped commissions
  • Work Environment: Fully remote — work from anywhere in the U.S.
  • Health & Wellness: Comprehensive health insurance package (medical, dental, sick pay)
  • Retirement & PTO: 401(k) retirement plan and 15 days paid vacation
