Latitude 38 Sales Position Open
Every new year brings some new horizons to cross. Our sales manager, Nicki Bennett, has decided it’s time to change course. We’ve been fortunate to have her skills, dedication and enthusiasm for sailing and Latitude for the past five years, but now we are looking for someone to take the lead on managing our media sales.
We are seeking an ambitious, creative, adventurous advertising sales professional to lead our sales department.
It’s a key role, tailor-made for a sailing enthusiast who’s strong in relationship selling. While the position is remote, the right candidate must live in the San Francisco Bay Area and be an engaged member of the local sailing community. Duties include actively selling and servicing current advertisers while also prospecting and acquiring new advertisers for our multi-channel media platform, including our monthly and specialty publications, website, email newsletters, events and podcast.
The successful candidate will have a proven track record in sales, enthusiasm, creativity and knowledge to help our customers in the dynamic advertising market. You are detail- and team-oriented with excellent time-management skills and follow-up. The ability to work within deadlines is essential. You are up to speed in the world of digital/print/publishing while continuing to learn and grow.
Latitude 38 has been serving West Coast sailors since 1977, both in print and online. The ideal candidate is excited about integrated print and digital advertising and is comfortable with the operational side of media sales, including CRM/database management, campaign tracking, coordination with production, and ad fulfillment.
