Head of Growth

About Baton

We are a marketplace for buying and selling small businesses, and act as a trusted seller-side partner to help small business owners navigate the sale process with clarity and certainty, by reconciling financials and business data before listing. Buyers on the platform love the listing quality, the ability to underwrite a deal quickly, and move to negotiations. This enables us to out-perform the market by 10x.

We’re looking for people who take real pride in their work and are willing to stand up for customers, even when that means asking thoughtful questions or sharing constructive feedback. We value individuals who are curious, collaborative, and open-minded in their approach to data and decision-making, while also being bold enough to think creatively and aim high when opportunities arise.

We aim to build and maintain a team that reflects the diversity of the people who use our products. That’s why our hiring process takes into account the whole person—their potential, experiences, and unique perspectives—alongside the skills and expertise they bring to the table.

Baton is backed by Giant Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, Divergent Capital, WndrCo, Trust Fund and a syndicate of world-class investors.
