Fulfillment Associate

who we are

Flytedesk powers media and advertising on college campuses. We build the technology that college media organizations and universities use to manage their operations and the tools that small businesses and national advertisers use to reach students. We work with brands, campaigns, and causes as their college partner in understanding, reaching, and driving outcomes with students.

We have a presence at almost every college in the country and can reach 20 million students through campus billboards, student influencers, campus email newsletters, college newspapers, digital ads, SMS, and more.

We started flytedesk as the tool we needed at our college newspapers and have grown to become the single largest outside funding source for student journalism. Brick by brick, we’re creating a sustainable business model for college media by providing a coveted service to advertisers. We’re mission-driven, profitable, remote, and unrelenting in pushing our business and customers forward.

As part of our commitment to college media, we use a data-informed approach and deep industry experience to help organizations thrive, not just survive, through targeted training resources, national advertising opportunities, and revenue-driving strategies.

culture & values

We’ve decided to build a sustainable future for college media. It’s our mission and at the core of everything we do. We measure our progress by progressing towards our mission, the experience we gain along the way, and the revenue we generate doing it. We haven’t gotten around to having enshrined, heavy-handed “core values,” but there are some things you should know about working with us…

While we take our work seriously, we don’t take ourselves seriously. We treat each other with candor, kindness, and challenge, and hold each other accountable. We believe we’re all a work in progress, and there’s humor in just about everything. We make time for silliness and appreciate levity. 

Obviously, we try to outsmart problems first, but we’re liberal with the elbow grease. Our way of building things and navigating uncertainty is to power through it. Our best people dive in headfirst and figure it out, even if it’s not “their” job and even at the risk of making mistakes. They don’t wait for someone else to solve a problem they see clearly. You should be looking to build something that matters, dive in with an open mind, and find the value in being wrong.
