Open sales seats at companies that sell advertising (radio and TV groups, outdoor and publishing companies, social networks and programmatic ad technology), read from each company's own careers page. A role counts here when its employer sells advertising, whatever its title says. Each employer's careers system is read again every hour, so a seat it fills drops off this page at the next read.

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

Ask before you sign

Ask how much of the pay is commission and on what (new advertisers, renewals or total billing), whether you inherit a list of accounts or start from an open territory, and the targets for new business. Pay differs most by the seat: local broadcast and outdoor postings state the lowest figures here, ad technology and social network seats the highest.

Posted pay for each kind of seat

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).

Requirements named in the postings

Frequently asked questions

How much does a media sales seat pay?

The open media sales roles carry 375 separate posted pay ranges. The middle of that market is $70k–$271k/yr and its median $128k/yr, each figure the range a posting states, base or OTE as it labels it. The richest posting tops out at $555k/yr, at Yahoo. 362 of the 800 leave pay out, which usually means the number comes up at the recruiter screen.

Can you get into media sales without experience?

Often, at the local level: radio, TV and outdoor companies hire account executives from other sales jobs, retail and hospitality, and some post entry-level seats and internships (Clear Channel Outdoor's entry-level account executives and Townsquare Media's sales internship were open on 2 November 2026). Agency, national and programmatic seats usually ask for years of selling media to brands and agencies. The years and degrees today's open roles name are counted on this page. Counting the requirement lines of 198 open media sales roles, 40 a bachelor's or some degree and 158 mention no degree at all.

What does a media sales account executive do?

Sells advertising to businesses and the agencies that buy for them. Local seats at radio and TV groups and outdoor companies call on businesses in a market (car dealers among them) to sell airtime, billboard space and digital campaigns; national and digital seats at social networks and ad technology companies manage the budgets of brands and agencies, campaign by campaign. On 2 November 2026 iHeartMedia, Nexstar Media Group and Townsquare Media had the most open US media sales roles, and account executive was the most common title.

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. Yahoo, Agentio, Teads and GumGum 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.
