SalesAccount Executive

KHON2, KHII & CW is home to Hawaii’s #1 local news — winner of the Edward R. Murrow Award for Overall Excellence and Breaking News — and the producer of beloved local programs including Living808, Sam Choy’s In The Kitchen, The Molokai Hoe, The Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational, and more. In addition to our broadcast platforms, we offer KHON2.com, KHON+ streaming, and the most advanced digital marketing solutions, giving advertisers a true multiplatform reach across broadcast, streaming, digital, and social. We’re looking for a driven, relationship-minded sales professional to help local businesses grow by tapping into the full power of our broadcast and digital portfolio — and the trust our brand has earned over the last +70 years.

The Multiplatform Sales Account Executive generates advertising revenue by building relationships with established agencies, cold-calling new prospects, and helping clients understand how broadcast, digital, streaming, and integrated marketing solutions can grow their business. You’ll partner with local sales management to develop customized, results-driven campaigns across all our platforms — and you’ll be supported with continual professional development along the way.

We want someone with a positive can-do attitude, a strong work ethic, and a genuine desire to build win-win client partnerships.

We’re looking for a professional with a strong understanding of media in all its forms — broadcast, digital, streaming, and social — and an appreciation for how today’s advertisers reach audiences across platforms. Experience with in-person, one-on-one consultative selling is essential. Prior media sales experience is a plus but not required; we’ll invest in the right candidate who has the drive, curiosity, and people skills to succeed.
