Powering How People Share on the Web
ShareThis offers the most innovative sharing platform for today's social audience. Our suite of solutions for advertisers and publishers inspire people to do more of what we believe is the foundation of digital life - to share.
We make it easy to share ideas and get to the good stuff online. Reaching over 400 million users across nearly a million sites across the web, ShareThis is changing the economics of online publishing by creating a market of influence across the Web. ShareThis allows users to share content from anywhere to anyone while simultaneously enabling publishers and advertisers to tap the value of sharing.
We have experienced significant growth both in adoption by site publishers and share actions by users. The business end of ShareThis involves developing informational insights from data that can be used in online advertising models. The company is currently engaged in several revenue generating opportunities with publishers and advertisers.
Based in Palo Alto, CA, the ShareThis team comes from companies such as Yahoo!, AOL, LinkedIn, Google and MySpace. The company is privately held with funding from Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Blue Chip Venture Company, DFJ Mercury, Reservoir Partners, Illinois Ventures, Queen City Angels and RPM Ventures.

We are dedicated to supporting the company's expanding base of advertisers and the ShareThis sales team by providing them with the highest levels of service. We are responsible for supporting customers and generating revenue from both display advertising as well as social ad units. This means that Media Operations team members need to be proactive, motivated, organized, responsible - and able to work well in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
Key Responsibilities :
Independently support the sales team by responding to RFP requests from top advertising clients such as Digitas, RazorFish, OMD, Saatchi & Saatchi, WPP, and others.
