Love finding ways to turn good ideas into actual revenue?
New Atlas is an independent digital publisher bringing new innovations, discoveries and ideas to millions of readers around the world, with an established advertising business and a whole lot of untapped commercial potential.
We're looking for a resourceful, hands-on commercial operator who enjoys figuring things out, making deals happen and seeing the numbers move. You'll help us get more out of our existing advertising business, find new customers and partners, and test new ways to make money from our audience and brand.
We're a small, independent, global team operating across multiple time zones. You won't inherit a big department or a perfectly polished playbook, but you'll have access to experienced specialists, direct contact with the Managing Director and genuine freedom to try things. We're more interested in somebody who's built, sold, improved or grown something than somebody with an impressive job title. If you've made things happen with limited resources, we'd love to hear about it.
What you’ll do
- Take commercial ownership of our programmatic ad revenue, working with experienced AdOps and technical partners to improve performance
- Track the key numbers and spot problems and opportunities early
- Find and pitch new advertisers and sponsors, build relationships, negotiate deals and bring in direct revenue.
- Build simple systems to manage prospects, follow-ups, deals and repeat business.
- Find repeatable wins for us in affiliate sales, newsletters, subscriptions and new commercial products
- Look for opportunities we haven’t explored, and run small, quick experiments: scale what works, drop what doesn’t
What you’ll bring
- 2 years experience with digital advertising, programmatic monetization or commercial partnerships. Publisher-side AdOps experience is a plus.
- A background in selling, pitching and negotiating
- Comfort with numbers and making calls based on returns and costs
- A “sleeves up, figure it out” attitude with a strong ability to prioritize and follow through
- Right to work where you’re based, and overlap with Australian business hours
Experience in publishing, subscriptions or ecommerce is a bonus, but we care more about what you’ve achieved than where you’ve done it.
Why join us
- Real ownership and autonomy in a small team
- Work directly with the Managing Director
- Fully remote with flexible hours
- A chance to shape how a 20+ year old brand grows
