Here at LOCALiQ we have a great opportunity for a full-time Media Sales Executive to join our advertising team based in Kendal. Our well-known media brands include The Westmorland Gazette, In-Cumrbria and News & Star that offer great advertising platforms for the local business community.

As a Media Sales Exec you'll be telephoning existing, lapsed and new customers regarding their advertising and marketing needs. Once trained and using great questions you will easily be able to explain the benefits of our advertising products and how they work to promote events & brands and provide a greater online presence.

The key products you will be trained to sell include print and online display adverts, Facebook advertising and video services. The calls are unscripted, allowing you to reach out with your own personality and style.

Ideally, you will have a background in sales or customer services, you'll be someone who enjoys speaking with people and easily builds rapport. It's very important that you know you would or can thrive in a busy, target-focussed sales environment.

We offer full training and on-going development so this is a great chance to step into the world of media and expand your knowledge of advertising and digital marketing whilst earning a good basic salary with additional monthly commission.
