Atlanta magazine, the city’s leading media publishing brand for sixty-five years, is looking for accomplished sales professionals to join our growing portfolio of publications, digital initiatives and events division. As we enter the magazine’s 65th Anniversary and launch new initiatives, we need sales executives well versed in print, digital and event sponsorship.

The magazine also operates a full, in-house digital marketing agency versed in SEO, SEM, Google Display Advertising, Paid Social Media, OOH, streaming and much more.
