#TeamNextdoor

Nextdoor is where you connect to the neighborhoods that matter to you so you can belong. Our purpose is to cultivate a kinder world where everyone has a neighborhood they can rely on.

Neighbors around the world turn to Nextdoor daily to receive trusted information, give and get help, get things done, and build real-world connections with those nearby — neighbors, businesses, and public services. Today, neighbors rely on Nextdoor in more than 315,000 neighborhoods across 11 countries.

Meet Your Future Neighbors

Businesses that partner with Nextdoor come in all shapes and sizes and with different reasons to connect to a neighborhood, and rarely will one Nextdoor advertising solution work for all. Mid-Market advertisers are foundational to a successful multi-billion dollar advertising business and in recognition of that, we are investing into the Mid-Market with the launch of the Nextdoor ACCELERATE sales organization.

Your knowledge of online media combined with your communication skills and analytical abilities will shape how advertisers succeed and grow on our platform. You anticipate how decisions are made, persistently explore and uncover the business needs of Nextdoor's advertising clients, and understand how our range of product offerings can unlock growth for their business. Working with these clients, you set the vision and the strategy for how their advertising can reach millions of neighbors. You will be integral to our evolving go-to-market and product development approach, regularly feeding customer insights into our planning process and putting your stamp on what we create.

At Nextdoor, we offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment experience, providing a flexible experience for our valued employees.
