At Locali

Q, part of USA TODAY Co., we help businesses grow by bringing together advanced marketing technology, trusted audience reach, and the expertise to turn it into results. In this role, you’ll work at the intersection of digital marketing and one of the most trusted media networks in the country—helping businesses connect with customers across the full marketing funnel.

You’ll partner with clients to understand their goals, build strategies that combine performance-driven digital solutions with the reach of the USA TODAY Network, and deliver measurable outcomes. This is an opportunity to be part of a team that doesn’t just sell products. We bring together the right mix of solutions to drive real business growth.

Our Account Executive role is a consultative, relationship-driven sales position for someone who loves owning the full sales cycle—from net-new prospecting through long-term account growth—and who thrives in both hunting and managing client relationships.

In this role, you will actively hunt for net-new business, while also managing, growing, and expanding an ongoing book of clients. You’ll create tailored marketing strategies, guide businesses from first conversation through ongoing performance discussions, and continually identify opportunities to deepen partnerships over time. You’ll act as a trusted marketing partner—not a transactional seller—balancing new business development with retention, upsell, and account expansion to drive long‑term client value.

Our Account Executive role is partnered with a post-sales team that manages campaign performance, optimizes results, and prepares reporting. Additional support resources are available, including the Data and Insights team, Client Strategists, and other product-specific resources.

In your first 90 days, you’ll gain confidence in Locali

Q’s solutions, tools, and sales approach while building meaningful prospecting and discovery habits. By the end of this period, you’ll be owning your territory and sales cycle end-to-end, with the support and coaching needed to set you up for long‑term success.
