Advertising Sales Account Executive

The Park Record is looking for a polished professional advertising sales executive who can hit the ground running. Ideal candidates will have magazine, newspaper, and/or digital ad sales experience, be willing to learn, and be able to sell multi-media and cross-platform. Our clientele is a mix of national brands, well-established local businesses, and mom-and-pop shops.

Our current product mix is a rapidly growing newspaper that publishes twice a week in print and digital formats, a suite of magazines that publish monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, and annually across a wide variety of topics, a website with tremendous monthly reach, daily and weekly newsletters, signature events, and a full programmatic digital suite. The company is also planning on adding new products (print and digital) in the coming year. This is a fairly fast-paced sales environment with multiple projects going on all the time. If you can function well in a busy newsroom and bi-weekly deadlines, you'd fit right in.
