ADVERTISING SALES
For 140 years, The Light and Champion has had a
positive impact on the lives and livelihoods of busi-
nesses serving Shelby County. There is a reason why
we are the county's oldest continually operating
business.
The key to that success continues to be customer-
service focused sales representatives.
We are seeking the right person to join our team. We
want a person looking for a career, not just a job.
We sell Shelby County's most diverse mix of print,
Web, social media and pre-targeted digital advertising.
Sales experience is not required, but the ability to
deliver results in a demanding environment is critical.
Sound business and work ethics are essential.
Interested parties should send the following to
steve.fountain@lightandchampion.com:

• A current and complete resume with salary history.
• Three references with contact information.
