Pathfinder is looking for an experienced sales professional with a passion for magazine and digital advertising. If you love chatting to diverse people, explaining exactly why advertising will be really good for business, this could be the ideal sales agent role for you.

We’re looking for a dedicated sales agent with experience in digital and print advertising sales who can sell advertising opportunities to companies which provide services to ex-military personnel.

Products
Pathfinder International Magazine, distributed by the Ministry of Defence, is a well-established magazine providing resettlement advice, training, jobs and opportunities for people planning to, or in the process of, leaving the Armed Forces.
Much of the content focusses on retraining, education and employment opportunities. We also run regular features on topics such as business opportunities, housing, relocation, financial advice, schooling and mental wellbeing to name but a few.
As an experienced advertising sales executive, your role will involve selling magazine, website and newsletter advertising opportunities to companies providing the products and services needed by Service Leavers. There are also advertising services for clients to run email marketing campaigns or take advantage of face-to-face opportunities at Forces-related exhibitions, conferences and awards events.
Benefits
Working with a well-established company
Pathfinder International Magazine was established in September 1991. Every year since, 12 issues of Pathfinder International Magazine have been distributed in printed format. The Pathfinder International offering has expanded over that time to encompass a digital version of the magazine, website, newsletters, social media channels and media partnerships.
Successful track record with agents or sales people
Pathfinder magazine has been running since 1991. This month we have sold over 35 ads for the June print edition plus further ads for future editions and digital ads for the website. The sales are there if you can convert them!
Excellent commission terms
A basic flat rate of 10% commission per sale. Sales values average between £1000-£5000. A bonus is available in addition to commission for a sale value beyond the agreed level of sales. This will be agreed in advance with the agents.
Sales leads provided
Pathfinder International will provide a foundation of sales leads based on our historical data but candidates will be expected to produce their own fresh leads and grow an advertising client portfolio.

Target market
Ex-servicemen and women mainly need help finding employment when they leave the Armed Forces. Upon leaving they’re usually given training grants and redundancy funds which can be used to pay for courses with training providers, universities and colleges, making these types of establishments ideal for advertising opportunities.
Forces leavers are also highly skilled and highly sought after in the civilian world, so recruitment advertisers are another significant target market. In addition, they need help in other areas including business advice, financial services and housing and any businesses operating in this field would also be potential clients.
