Digital Advertising Sales Manager

Have you got extensive experience selling digital media products such as native content, banner advertising, podcasts and email marketing? Are you talented at scoping out client opportunities and creating bespoke media propositions to provide solutions? Would you like to work for a growing media company with lots of opportunities for career growth and progression?

We're working with an award-winning media sales business, with a whole range of products from events and magazines to e-newsletters, banner advertising, email marketing and branded content. This is a company that looks after its staff and takes pride in being recognised as the best in the industry.

This Media Sales Manager role we are currently seeking to appoint is a hybrid role managing existing accounts, inbound enquiries and targeting new business, for a niche B2C digital brand with a growing reputation in its sector. You will need to be an intelligent consultative salesperson, with the ability to maximise contracts, but also happy to pitch direct to brands and media agencies.

We really need someone who can not only sell, but proactively come up with ideas on how to generate more revenue and bring in new partners. This isn't going to be the right role for someone who wants to come in and sell a ready-made product - whilst there are elements of that, development work is needed to really drive revenues and the successful candidates must to be able to play an instrumental role in that.

Applicants must have a minimum of 2-3 years of media sales experience, ideally but not essentially in the B2C space, with a proven background in selling digital solutions such as banners, podcasts, native and advertorials. Due to the flexible nature of the position, the successful candidate will most likely be based outside of London in Hertfordshire, Essex, Buckinghamshire or Berkshire, though candidates located within the city will also be considered.

If you would like more information don't hesitate to send us your CV or give us a call, we suspect the role will be popular and available for a limited time only.
