About The Health Insider
The Health Insider is on a path to become Canada’s trusted voice in health journalism, delivering insightful, evidence-based content and meaningful health resources to engaged audiences across the country. As a fast-growing digital media company at the intersection of journalism, wellness, and innovation, we connect health-conscious Canadians with meaningful stories—and the brands that support them.
We’re looking for a high-energy, creative, and driven individual responsible for developing and executing monetization strategies across advertising, sponsorship, and bespoke marketing partnerships for The Health Insider.
What You’ll Do
As our Strategic Accounts & Revenue Manager, you’ll have a proven track record in selling digital media properties in Canada – advertising, sponsorships, partnerships, etc. You’ll be responsible for identifying, pitching, and closing revenue-generating sponsorship and advertising opportunities across our digital platforms. You’ll work closely with editorial and leadership to align content with monetization strategies while pursuing high-value partnerships.
This is a remote, full-time position for someone who’s excited to help shape the future of a fledgling media company with big ambitions—and who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and make an impact. You’ll help hone our go-to-market strategy and then hire and manage a team to do the same.
Core Responsibilities:
- Own the end-to-end sales cycle for sponsorship, advertising, and bespoke campaigns with full team support.
- Refine media kits, pricing models, and strategic partnership proposals that align foals with The Health Insider’s content, audience and mission.
- Identify and reach out to prospective sponsors (clinics, hospitals, wellness brands, pharma companies, healthcare tech, etc.).
- Collaborate with editorial to plan overall and themed content that align with sponsor interests (e.g., fertility, longevity, diabetes, sleep, gut health, medical tourism, women’s health, mental health).
- Identify and help develop new commissionable product categories.
- Attend virtual or in-person industry events to expand the THI brand and network.
- Track performance metrics, deliver regular reporting on performance and pipeline opportunities and iterate on offerings based on results and feedback.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years experience in digital media sales, advertising partnerships, or brand sponsorships (experience in health/wellness is a plus).
- Proven success and ability to pitch, close, and manage client relationships.
- Deep understanding of digital ad formats, sponsorship models, branded content, and performance metrics
- Entrepreneurial spirit—you’re excited by the opportunity to help grow a media brand from the ground up
- Strong understanding of content marketing and health-related industries in Canada.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills. You can sell the story behind the story.
- Comfortable using CRM tools, (e.g. Zoho, Salesforce)
- Strong network of Canadian health clients and media is also a plus.
Nice to Have
- Experience in healthcare, wellness, or pharmaceutical advertising or media
- Previous work with early-stage startups or media brands
- Insight and expertise in evolving digital ad trends: native advertising, newsletters, podcasts, video, and influencer partnerships
Why Join Us?
- Be part of a mission-driven company that’s redefining health media in Canada
- Make a direct impact on our growth and success
- Competitive base salary plus generous commission structure
- Flexible, remote-first work environment
- Opportunity for growth into leadership
