Sales Director, Marketing Magazine Malaysia

Established in 2002 in Singapore before extending its reach into the Hong Kong market in 2006, Marketing has grown to become Asia's undisputed number one media brand for the region's advertising & marketing professionals. Offering superior reporting and analysis in each of the markets it operates, Marketing's regional audited circulation is more than double that of its local competitors in Singapore and Hong Kong and 40% larger than its regional competitor.

Now, it's Malaysia's turn to experience Marketing and we need a true sales superstar to lead our advertising sales charge.

We offer a highly attractive base salary as well as a very rewarding bonus structure. More importantly, we offer the right candidate the chance to really make a difference, to build a business and to establish the type of reputation in Asia's media industry that will open doors for years to come.

In addition to our network of offices in Singapore, Honk Kong and Malaysia, new media brands are in development, as is further regional expansion of our existing brands. Lighthouse is a company on the move.

More than anything, you are passionate about media - the products, the players and how it all works. You cast your discerning eye over every newspaper, magazine, TV programme, billboard, radio broadcast and website you come across and think about how it all works and how the stakeholders make money. Media is your life.

You are in advertising sales and you love it, even on the bad days. You might earn more money in banking but as far as you're concerned, there's no better industry than media and advertising sales is the best part of the most dynamic and most exciting industry in the world. For you, there's nothing better than having an intelligent business conversation about what the prospect wants, presenting your audience, putting a smart proposal together then closing the deal.

In addition to your supreme sales skills, you also have experience in training and leading a team of sales professionals to achieve great things.

Other prerequisites include:
- At least four years advertising sales experience.
- Experience with sales strategy, sales plans and budgets.
- Excellent communications skills, fluent in written and spoken English.
- An ambitious, competitive nature and a certain confidence that you can be the best.
- A methodical, goal-oriented approach and an unyielding pursuit of those goals.

If you think you have what it takes to launch Marketing in Malaysia, we would like to hear from you.
