Flytedesk powers media and advertising on college campuses. We build the technology that college media organizations and universities use to manage their operations. We build the technology that small businesses 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 the ability to 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 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, newly remote, and unrelenting in pushing our business and customers forward.

You’re passionate about the future of media, and you’d love to help more student media organizations be better, more innovative learning labs. You’re a bit of a jack-of-all-trades, super smart, and flexible.
