Were looking to expand our Growth Team with a versatile, multi-talented Sales Support person to help us stay organized and drive us forward while we help our clients be force-multipliers for good.
If this sounds like you, you might just be the Sales Support person that were looking for.
At Yoko Co, we know that life is short, which is why we exclusively serve clients who are working to make a positive impact. From rescuing pets, to saving lives, to building communities for brilliant minds, the work you do here will help make the world a better place.
Our team is made up of people who are passionate about the work they do, the missions of the clients they serve, and, importantly, their craft. We dont think of one another as coworkers or employees, but as fellow humans. Were here to bring out the best in each other every day.
Why work at Yoko Co?
- Mission. We are a purpose-driven team. This is your chance to +help create a better world for all of us.
- 4-Day Work Week. We treat our Mondays as flex days, meaning that you can take most of them off if you plan your work appropriately.
- Holiday Breaks. Were closed for nearly a full week at Thanksgiving and two weeks at the end of the year.
- Best Place to Work. For two years running, weve been named a Best Place to Work by the Inc. 5000 and Washington Business Journal.
- Kind, High-Caliber Team. Youll work with team members who are both top performers and genuinely kind and supportive.

- Schedule meetings and send reminders, as needed.
- Track status of documents through the sales process.
Youll do great if you:
- Take initiative and actively seek out ways to help out the team and streamline the business development process.

- Experience with WordPress or web design in general.
However, maybe dont apply if:
- You prefer to work on a single big project at a time. We all have to do a bit of juggling around here.
- Youd rather wait for someone to tell you what to do. Were looking for someone who is self-motivated and ready to take initiative.
- Youve ever said thats not my job or thats below my pay grade. We take pride in a culture where everyone is willing to pitch in where they need to.
- You want someone to hold your hand every step of the way.
Full disclosure:
This isnt the place for everyone. Youll have a lot of autonomy, but the expectations are high, the work is fast-paced, and the hats are many. Were looking for people with grit who take ownership, see the big picture, and are always thinking about how we can do even better the next time.
The interview process:
Youll do 3-to 4 interviews with various members of our team, starting with a short culture interview, and then moving on to more specialized conversations. Somewhere in the process, youll likely do a short practical test to ensure you can deliver at the level it takes to be successful here. If you have some, wed love to see examples of work youve done that relates to the work youd do here.
What you get:
Youll get a competitive salary, unlimited time off, a flexible schedule, the ability to work wherever you want, a personal development budget, federal holidays and multiple weeks off at the end of the year to recharge. If youre in the US, we also offer health insurance, disability and life insurance, and 401k matching.
A little more about us:

We also care about each other we dont think of one another as coworkers or employees, but as fellow humans. From developers to designers, project managers to strategists, we bring out the best in each other.
