We have an exciting opportunity for a Business Development Manager in our digital advertising team!
Working remotely, this consultative sales role involves showcasing our digital advertising and marketing solutions best suited to each customer’s needs. Ideally, you will be based within the South London region.
It is preferred that you have a solid understanding of digital marketing products such as paid social, Google Ads, content marketing, digital display, video & websites. Coming from an industry background is advantageous; however, it is not essential to this role. You will, through great questioning and listening, understand your customer’s needs and be able to present the best solutions we have available that will ensure great response and traction for each campaign.
This role is focused on new business development; however, you will have access to our active customer base as well as the opportunity to reach out to lapsed clients. You will also maintain and grow the existing accounts already utilizing our solutions. The focus is on creating great campaigns, retaining customers, winning new business opportunities, and overall increasing digital revenues.
You must drive and have access to your own car.
Through its investment in the industry-leading LOCALiQ Sales Training Academy, Newsquest can provide a comprehensive career development programme for digital media sales professionals. This assists Sales Consultants with extensive ongoing training and support, enabling them to build their digital skills and fast track their career development in digital marketing.
