** KHON2, KHII & CW — Honolulu, Hawaii
** KHON2, KHII and Hawaii's CW are 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 Living
808, 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 , KHON+ streaming/CTV, 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.

This is first and foremost a sales role. That said, if you're comfortable on camera, there's an added opportunity to contribute to Living
808, our premier lifestyle program, by hosting sponsored-content segments for broadcast and creating branded content for social, digital, and our KHON+ CTV app. It's a powerful differentiator for the right seller — a way to bring your clients' stories to life and open doors that a standard pitch can't. If you can sell and shine on camera, even better.

We want someone with a positive can-do attitude, a strong work ethic, and a genuine desire to build win-win client partnerships.
** What You'll Bring
** 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. Comfort on camera is a plus but not required.
