Job Description

You’re a high‑performing B2B media seller who wants bigger accounts, a faster trajectory, and a genuinely modern sales environment. At Key Media, you’ll sell into a market‑leading Insurance media portfolio, own Tier 1 relationships, and use cutting‑edge AI tools to accelerate both performance and earnings.


Role: Media Sales Professional – Insurance (B2B Digital Media)
Location: Flexible / hybrid | OTE: CAD $180k–$200k (uncapped)


What you’ll be doing

You’ll join a team of consultative, high‑performing sellers in our Insurance vertical, with clear ownership and support:

Sales motion & impact

  • Own and grow a portfolio of existing Tier 1 insurance accounts, with direct responsibility for revenue growth and renewals
  • Develop multi‑stakeholder relationships (carriers, brokers, service providers, tech vendors, agencies) and act as a trusted commercial partner
  • Drive pipeline growth and revenue across our digital insurance brands via display, branded content, sponsorships and lead‑gen solutions
  • Spot and convert new business opportunities within the broader insurance ecosystem to expand your portfolio
  • Introduce innovative, data‑driven solutions and ad‑tech opportunities to deepen client engagement and share of wallet


How we sell (culture, pace, support)

  • Join a collaborative, performance‑driven team that shares playbooks, insights and wins
  • Work closely with marketing, editorial and design to build campaigns that actually solve insurance client problems
  • Operate with realistic KPIs, transparent expectations and full visibility of your pipeline and performance
  • Benefit from structured onboarding and ongoing coaching focused on consultative, account‑led enterprise sales


The tools & enablement

You’ll sell with a modern, AI‑enabled stack, not spreadsheets:

  • Enterprise‑grade CRM to manage pipeline and key accounts
  • Competitor analysis tools and market intel to sharpen your proposals
  • Cutting‑edge AI to support prospecting, email drafting, meeting review and day‑to‑day productivity – freeing you to focus on high‑value conversations



What success looks like

  • First 6 months: you’re fully ramped on our insurance brands and audience, running a healthy qualified pipeline, building strong relationships with key Tier 1 accounts, and hitting agreed ramp‑up targets
  • 12 months+: you’re consistently meeting or exceeding revenue targets, demonstrating clear growth across Tier 1 accounts, and are recognised internally as a go‑to person in the Insurance vertical


Who will thrive in this role

You’re likely a strong fit if you:

  • Have 3+ years’ proven B2B media or advertising sales experience
  • Can demonstrate managing and growing Tier 1 / enterprise accounts, ideally in insurance or broader financial services
  • Are motivated by ownership, accountability and seeing your numbers grow
  • Bring strong client‑facing and negotiation skills, with a consultative, solutions‑led approach
  • Are comfortable with KPIs, pipeline discipline and a fast‑moving commercial environment
  • Are curious, coachable and excited to leverage AI and modern tools to level up your selling


This probably isn’t for you if you prefer purely reactive / inbound sales or are uncomfortable with visibility around performance.


What’s in it for you

  • OTE CAD $180k–$200k, uncapped, with competitive base, commission on booked deals and accelerator models for top performers
  • Ownership of high‑value insurance accounts within a global, market‑leading B2B media business
  • A clear path to bigger strategic accounts, leadership opportunities, or broader vertical responsibility
  • Flexible hybrid working, paid volunteer leave, extra annual leave accrual for tenure, and recognition programs (awards, vouchers, travel incentives)
