Advance your sales career with LOCALiQ
Ready to take your sales career to the next level? Join LOCALiQ, part of Newsquest Media Group, as a Marketing Sales Consultant and play a key role in helping local businesses grow through impactful, results-driven advertising solutions.
Based in Enniskillen and covering the wider region, you’ll represent the well-established Impartial Reporter brand, working directly with local businesses to deliver tailored advertising strategies across both digital and print platforms.
This is a field-based, consultative sales role where you’ll be out in your territory, booking and attending meetings with business owners and decision-makers. From first contact through to closing deals and managing ongoing relationships, you’ll take a solution-led approach to driving revenue and delivering real results for your clients.
This is not a desk-based position. You’ll be out meeting clients face-to-face, gaining a deep understanding of their business needs and showing them how LOCALiQ can support their growth.
To be successful, you must hold a full UK driving licence and have access to your own vehicle, as travel across the territory is essential. This is a full-time role, Monday to Friday during standard office hours.
