b5media Hiring Ad Sales Manager

by Jeremy Wright on October 19th, 2006

Rick posted last week that b5 was looking for an ad sales person, and it’s time to officially confirm it.

Here’ s the official blurb:

b5media Inc., a Toronto-based new media content network, is seeking a qualified and experience online ad sales manager to add to our growing team. b5media is a venture-backed company (JL Albright and Brightspark Ventures) focused on creating valuable content, primarily using blogs. We are seeking an individual with solid experience in online ad sales and valuable industry contacts who is looking for a challenging opportunity with growth potential, a solid base and commission package as well as performance incentives. If you, or anyone you know, is looking for an exciting opportunity in a fast-growing startup, please email Jeremy Wright at Jeremy AT b5media.com.

Basically we are looking for someone with real experience, who enjoys a startup environment to join our international team. About 80% of our traffic is US, so significant US experience is a huge plus. We want someone who lives and breathes online ad sales, who is comfortable with strategy and who knows the systems that allow a successful team to thrive.

What’s not in the job posting? Toronto or New York are ideal. You’ll be building and creating a team so vision is essential. You need to be able to sell online ads as well as educate clients on the potential of blogs. You need to be flexible.

And, yes, you’ll be paid well. That should be a given. We’re looking for a game-changer, and we’re willing to pay for it.

If you or anyone you know is interested, let us know ASAP. We’ve already started interviewing and in an ideal world the start date would be Dec 1, give or take.
