48° North is seeking to add a terrific person to our small team as the Advertising Sales Rep and Customer Care Captain!
Love boats, the boat life, and the communities of people who are also passionate about those things? Want to spend your days talking/thinking/growing/serving/living boats and the industry of wonderful humans and businesses in the Pacific Northwest that make it all possible? Come work with us!
48° North is a small team that operates as a department of the non-profit Northwest Maritime Center. In this non-profit era and throughout the magazine’s 40-plus year history, 48° North has a track-record as a great place to work, with long-tenured and happy employees. Are you the next member of our crew?
There’s a lot to love about the opportunity: it’s part-time with full benefits (approx. 20 hours per week), provides steadier compensation than many sales jobs while still offering commission incentives, and is primarily remote (in Washington state). Just as important, it’s fun and rewarding work—we think so anyway, and the right person for the role will too!
48° North’s advertisers share (probably exceed) our enthusiasm for boat life and the waterborne community, and have built businesses serving the same activities and spirit of adventure as our magazine and website. Truly, our advertisers are the best people (and we couldn’t do what we do without them!), and we’re looking for someone who wants to come on board, support them, steward these relationships, and help grow the family of advertisers who put their trust in 48° North to get the word about about their businesses, products, services, clubs, events, or goals.
Come sell ads, serve these important folks and their businesses, and help shape the boating world of the Pacific Northwest in the process.
