Want To Join The M Word Team? We’re Hiring!

Are you an experienced Advertising or Digital Sales Manager who wants to be able to work part-time, close to home?

Have you taken time out to raise a family or simply quit the rat race for a career break?

We are looking for an experienced digital sales manager who gets what we are trying to do.

The M Word is a unique community for women who happen to be mothers.

For the first time ever there is a space where Mums get to write in their own words about the imperfect world of parenting.

We’re funny, honest, real.

Each week we reach close to 2 million women, and are easily the fastest growing – and most engaged – online community for women in the country.

If you are looking for a part-time role in one of the most exciting new online projects for women, then please read on.

OUR VISION:

Since the M Word was launched just over 12 months ago as a Facebook page, it has sparked a remarkable response.

Our readers respond in a way not seen on any other website for women in the country. The reason is simple… we are the only place where women are given a platform to tell their own stories in their own words.

We want to create a space where ultimately, women are paid to write and share their own stories, which is why we need a digital sales manager.

WHAT THE ROLE INVOLVES:

The Digital Sales Manager is responsible for generating the revenue from our sponsors to keep The M Word free and readily available to our readers

Use your existing media agency and ad buyer relationships to develop new business.

Structure and negotiate all sponsorship packages.

As a peer member of the executive team: report on sales progress, accurately forecast and demonstrate a strong pipeline of activity. Also contribute to editorial discussion to support sales planning.

Develop and maintain a suitable CRM.

Must be a proven self-starter with access to transport and home office.

Expectation is that this role is part-time and ideally flexible to the ongoing demands of the candidate (school runs etc.), most likely 20-25 hours per week.  Hours, location and compensation are all negotiable for the right candidate.
