Subscriptions Sales Executive
Why Business News?
Business News is the go-to source for Western Australia's business community. With over 30 years of experience and a subscriber-first mindset, we empower leaders with the insights they need to drive growth and make smarter decisions.
We saw 34% subscription growth last financial year, and we’re not slowing down. As we expand, we’re looking for energetic people who are ready to grow with us.
The Opportunity
As a Subscriptions Sales Executive, you’ll play a key role in growing our subscriber community by introducing Western Australian business leaders to the insights and connections Business News provides.
You’ll work with organisations across Western Australia, speaking with business owners, senior leaders and professionals, introducing them to the value of Business News and supporting them in getting the most from their subscription.
Some days this means introducing new organisations to Business News, and other days it means working closely with existing subscribers to grow and strengthen the relationship.
Working in a collaborative and supportive team environment, you’ll build relationships, identify opportunities, and help organisations gain access to the information and networks they need to succeed.
You’ll be supported with training, systems, and coaching to help you build a successful career in sales.
Your Role
Business Development
Identify and engage new potential subscribers through phone outreach, networking, and lead follow-up.
Client Relationship Management
Build strong relationships with subscribers and help them maximise the value of our platform.
Commercial Growth
Work toward subscription growth targets through a combination of new clients and expanding existing relationships.
Collaboration
Work closely with the wider subscriptions, marketing and editorial teams to share insights and support our growing community of subscribers.
What We Are Really Looking For
You don’t need years of sales experience to succeed here. We’re looking for people with the right attitude and communication skills.
We’re looking for someone who is:
- Energetic and motivated: you enjoy meeting people and building relationships.
- A confident communicator: comfortable speaking with professionals and decision makers.
- Curious about business: you enjoy learning how companies operate and grow.
- Goal-oriented: you like working towards targets and seeing the results of your efforts.
- Self-motivated: you take initiative and enjoy being trusted to manage your time.
Experience in sales, media, business, customer service or account management is helpful, but not essential.
What We Offer
Competitive Compensation: We recognise and reward your hard work with a competitive salary and an uncapped commission structure designed to reward high performers.
Professional Development: As we continue to grow rapidly, we invest in your growth by offering opportunities for professional development, training, and career advancement.
Dynamic Environment: Join a vibrant and collaborative team that is passionate about what we do. Our dynamic work environment encourages creativity, innovation, and excellence.
Impactful Work: Join a company that makes a difference. Your work will directly contribute to the success of Western Australia's business community and economy.
