Podcast Ad Sales Coordinator

Job Description
We're a podcast network hiring someone to run point on sponsor outreach and deal tracking across our shows.
The job breaks into two halves. Half the time you're hunting: researching brands and agencies that make sense for our audience, reaching out cold, and following up until you get an answer one way or the other. The other half is admin that keeps deals from falling apart — keeping rate cards current as show performance changes, logging every deal's status, chasing signatures, and making sure ad reads actually happen on the timeline promised to the sponsor.
You'll work closely with hosts and producers to lock in read details and delivery deadlines, and you'll be the one sending sponsors their performance numbers — downloads, audience breakdown, whatever they need to justify renewing.
Experience in ad sales or outreach-heavy sales coordination is required. You should be a confident writer, comfortable holding your own in rate negotiations, and organized enough to juggle a dozen deals at different stages without losing track of any of them. Knowing podcast metrics — CPM, download counts, ad placement types — matters a lot here.
Prior podcast or media ad sales experience, existing agency relationships, or familiarity with analytics platforms like Podtrac or Chartable would put you ahead of other applicants.
