The posting, in Applecart's own words
archived Sep 4, 2026Applecart is the leading technology company that C-suites rely on to reach business-critical decision makers. The most important decisions are made by the hardest people to reach and influence. Historically, C-suite leaders have lacked the tools to reach the stakeholders that matter most to their business. The C-suites of hundreds of Fortune 500 companies, major agencies, trade associations, nonprofits, and governments use Applecart to put their best content in front of business-critical decision makers and those they trust — from policymakers and investors to CEOs, key employees, members of the media and more. Decision makers are informed by what they read, learn from advisors, hear from colleagues, and discuss with family and friends. To break through to them, you must reach them through the only channel that really moves them: those they know and trust. Applecart’s platform uses publicly available data to map billions of social relationships between nearly every American adult and enable clients to deliver content directly to decision makers and those that matter most to them. We are hiring an Account Director in our New York City office .
About the Role:
You will serve as the day to day strategic lead on our most important accounts, managing high-stakes relationships with some of the country’s most prominent Fortune 500 companies, trade associations, and advocacy organizations.

You will be responsible for navigating complex client landscapes, delivering high-level strategic counsel, and identifying commercial opportunities to expand Applecart’s footprint within your accounts. You will work with a talented team of senior communications and public affairs professionals, digital marketing and media strategists, client associates, data scientists, and analysts who, together, drive outcomes for Applecart’s high-profile clients.
