About MediaNews Group
This career site serves all of MediaNews Group, not only the Bay Area News Group: openings come from The Mercury News and East Bay Times in the Bay Area, the Southern California News Group (Orange County Register, Riverside Press-Enterprise), The San Diego Union-Tribune, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, Prairie Mountain Media's Colorado papers such as the Loveland Reporter-Herald, and Adtaxi, the group's digital agency. The product is advertising for local and regional businesses, with print, niche publications and community events sold alongside display, video, social, search, programmatic, CTV, streaming TV and digital out-of-home campaigns. Hunters and farmers are split: account executives and SCNG's business development executives prospect and close their own new business (the Irvine BDE gets no leads at all), the Pioneer Press account manager divides the week between new advertisers and a book of medium-to-large ones, and a strategic partnerships account manager in Southern California works current and lapsed clients and channel partners across the online and offline media placement desks. Adtaxi account managers take over the clients the sellers sign and run onboarding, campaign pacing, renewals and upsell, while leadership seats include a Union-Tribune digital sales manager who coaches the local team on the digital suite and carries revenue, and a Bay Area News Group VP of sales and marketing with a personal revenue goal. Seats are local to each paper's market, remote ones included (they require living in that market or in the listed states), field roles need a valid license and a reliable car, and every hire passes a background and driving record check.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
