D2C Sales Manager at Telemachus
Telemachus is reinventing the modern conglomerate by building lean, AI-native competitors to sleepy $10M+ profit incumbents. We're looking for a hands-on D2C Sales Manager to own paid acquisition across our portfolio. With business units scaling from zero to $2M in months, this is a chance to manage high-impact campaigns on Meta, TikTok, and emerging AI channels. If you’re a data-driven operator who wants a piece of the upside—including milestone bonuses that can reach seven figures—and the chance to outpace traditional agencies, join our intense, high-growth team in London.
About this role
Role overview
About the company
Telemachus
Telemachus is a machine which clones and improves large chunks of the economy. It puts together small teams (of around 4 people), provides them with capital, deep expertise and all the necessary infrastructure to clone and improve inefficient businesses within a year. In order to align incentives, each team member is rewarded with ~£1m cash bonuses in event of success, albeit with generous cash comp in event of failure. In the event of failure, the team members will be reassigned to different projects.
As execution becomes easier and context becomes less scarce, large numbers of inefficient and poorly-run businesses which neither be targeted by PE or the sole focus of a VC-backed startup; Telemachus' goal is to be the new sort of company which does this.
