Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page; only where a company pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from the employer, never out of the base or OTE it offers you.

Ask before you sign

Ask how commission is earned: on booked revenue, on revenue that actually runs, or on spend collected, and whether a canceled campaign claws it back. In ad sales that answer moves real money.

Pay by kind of sales work

Each row's band comes from that kind's own open postings in this market, by the method behind every band on the board (from the 25th percentile of the midpoints of posted ranges (each counted as yearly pay, a rate per hour at 2,080 hours) to the 90th percentile of their top ends); a row needs three distinct posted ranges before it gets one. Every figure is yearly pay in US dollars; where a posting quotes a rate per hour, week or month, it is multiplied by 2,080, 52 or 12 to make a full-time year (40 hours over 52 weeks).

Frequently asked questions

What do advertising sales jobs pay?

The open advertising sales roles carry 37 separate posted pay ranges. The middle of that market is $148k–$273k/yr and its median $180k/yr, each figure the range a posting states, base or OTE as it labels it. The richest posting tops out at $375k/yr, at PubMatic. 30 of the 67 leave pay out, which usually means the number comes up at the recruiter screen.

Do I need agency experience?

It counts for more here than in most markets: many postings ask for standing relationships with agency buyers or time on the media side. The way in without it is an entry seat such as sales planner, ad sales coordinator or SDR. Counting the requirement lines of 25 open advertising sales roles, 3 a bachelor's or some degree and 22 mention no degree at all.

What is ad sales like?

You sell reach and results to brands and to the agencies that buy for them. Budgets open in upfronts, quarterly plans and campaign flights, so a strong month depends on knowing when each client's money frees up. Many seats split agency relationships (holding companies and their media buyers) from direct brand accounts.

Are these openings real?

Each one is read from the employer's own careers system (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday and the like), and Apply takes you to that company's application. OpenAI, Databricks, AppLovin and Reddit are among the employers on this page. A real employer never charges you for training, a starter kit or a background check; the scam checker lists the other warning signs of a fake offer.
