About Nothing

Nothing exists to make tech feel exciting again.

We’re building a different kind of technology company, one that puts design, emotion, and human creativity at the heart of everything we do. From the way our products look and feel to how we communicate and show up in culture, we believe technology should make you feel something.

Founded in London in 2020, we’ve grown from idea to global challenger in just a few years. Backed by GV (Google Ventures), EQT Ventures, and C Ventures, and investors like Tony Fadell (iPod), Casey Neistat, and Kevin Lin (Twitch), we’re now sold in 40+ markets with millions of users worldwide.

About the Team
The Sales and Go-To-Market team is the engine room of our global expansion. We are currently tackling one of the toughest challenges in tech: breaking the stale duopoly of the North American carrier market. This isn't about shifting boxes; it’s about navigating the rigorous lab certifications of AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile while maintaining the soul of a challenger brand. We are building a lean, high-velocity team that can outmanoeuvre legacy giants by being sharper, faster, and more intentional about how our products land on shelves.
 
What You'll Do 
  • Drive the high-level executive strategy and primary relationship management for National Carriers to ensure Nothing is a priority partner. 
  • Scale our North American footprint by owning the sales forecasting and working with Supply Chain to exceed aggressive growth targets. 
  • Lead the end-to-end commercial launch of new smartphones, audio and wearable products, ensuring premium positioning both in-store and across digital channels. 
  • Articulate the Nothing design philosophy to carrier buyers, moving beyond spec-sheets to sell a vision of a more purposeful tech ecosystem. 
  • Manage the regional commercial budget, including the strategic allocation of trade marketing spend and retail incentives. 
  • Design and execute creative training modules and incentive programs that get carrier retail staff genuinely moving our products. 
  • Act as the bridge between US carriers and our R&D teams to ensure technical requirements and market trends shape our future roadmap. What
We're Looking For
  • A seasoned navigator with 10+ years of experience in mobile hardware sales, specifically managing Tier 1 US carrier accounts. 
  • A proactive owner who takes full responsibility for sales performance and isn't afraid to build the playbook from scratch. 
  • An agile strategist who possesses the discipline of big tech but thrives in the fast-paced, unscripted environment of a startup. 
  • An eye for excellence and a deep appreciation for industrial design, ensuring our brand story is never diluted during the sales process. 
  • A pragmatic problem-solver who can balance high-stakes negotiations with the hands-on reality of regional sales execution. 
  • A proven closer with a track record of securing hero device slots and hitting sell-through targets in highly competitive environments. 
  • A worldly communicator who can represent a London-born brand with a clear point of view to a sophisticated global audience.

Skills Required

  • 10+ years of experience in mobile hardware sales, managing Tier 1 US carrier accounts
  • Proven track record of securing hero device slots and hitting sell-through targets
  • Ability to design and execute creative training modules for retail staff

What We Do

Today, we’re left with just a few large incumbents. Lacking instinct and courage, they use research and analysis as crutches to make cold, unexciting and derivative products. Consumers are bored, no longer inspired by technology and instead feel uneasy about big tech and its impact on people's lives and society. Nothing is igniting change in the world. We’re here to make tech fun again, unleash creativity, and inspire our community to shape the future with us. About us: Nothing is a UK-based privately held company with backing from GV (formerly Google Ventures), EQT Ventures, C Ventures and other private investors including Tony Fadell (Principal at Future Shape & inventor of the iPod), Casey Neistat (YouTube personality and Co-founder of Beme), Kevin Lin (Co-founder of Twitch) and Steve Huffman (Co-founder and CEO of Reddit
