The role of a media sales executive is all about the sale of advertising space on a recognised product or brand, either in a Magazine or on a Website.

In other words without adverts and space being sold there would be no money for the production of magazines or BBC aside, TV/Radio shows etc. No money for the Directors Bentley no money for the other departments in fact no money for anything, so as you can see it is the most important department of any media company.
So you need tobe a team player as you will be joining a large and established team with fantastic training.

You will be paid top wages for the media industry; you will earn a basic salary of GBP18,900 - GBP21,000 (for exceptional candidates) + uncapped commission.
