Special Sales Account Manager

Growing educational publisher in western suburbs seeks talented and highly motivated individual to join our team. The available position is Special Sales Account Manager.

Special markets would include but not be limited to: mass market merchandisers, corporate sales, premium sales, and domestic and international rights.

Estimated overnight travel would be from 8 -10 weeks per year, which would include domestic and international (Bologna, Frankfurt, London) industry shows.
Mason Crest has internally created 1200 titles and has received excellent reviews as well as overwhelming market acceptance. One of the keys to Mason Crest’s success has been to create contemporary materials in niches that fulfill the needs of schools, libraries, trade and other vertical markets.
