The Revenue Products Associate is a key member of HCN’s Product & Marketing team, supporting and improving a broad range of earned‑revenue programs including advertising, classifieds, underwriting, merchandise, and group sales. This role combines outward‑facing relationship building with strong internal coordination and process improvement, applying product thinking and revenue operations practices to strengthen existing programs, improve reliability and performance, and help new offerings move from concept to execution.

Success in this role comes from measurable improvements in revenue performance, customer experience, and operational reliability across HCN’s earned‑revenue programs.

The ideal candidate has experience in revenue operations, sales support, and audience or product operations. We especially welcome candidates that have a demonstrated commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in their work.

Duties / Outcomes

The Revenue Products Associate will work under the direct supervision of the Director of Product & Marketing. Duties will include:

●     Build, operate, and improve sales and fulfillment pipelines across advertising, classifieds, underwriting, merchandise, and group sales programs.

●     Prospect buyers, respond to inbound inquiries, and support pricing, placement, and technical questions for advertising and classifieds programs.

●     Design and run targeted outreach and revenue campaigns to move prospective partners and buyers through defined pipelines.

●     Coordinate group sales efforts, working with Customer Service and external partners to improve clarity, usability, and fulfillment.

●     Collaborate with Editorial and Art on special packages, time‑bound artwork, and branded merchandise offered through HCN’s online store.

●     Ensure earned‑revenue orders (ads, classifieds, merchandise, group sales) are delivered accurately and on schedule.

●     Diagnose and reduce friction across revenue programs, improving customer experience, tools, and workflows.

●     Test, configure, and refine revenue tools and systems (including Pelcro, AdPerfect, Broadstreet, and related platforms) to improve reliability and scalability.

●     Create and maintain landing pages, forms, and customer touchpoints tied to earned‑revenue offerings.

●     Ensure all earned‑revenue materials and workflows align with HCN’s editorial independence, brand, privacy, accessibility, and quality standards.

●     Maintain dashboards and reports that track adoption, usage, revenue performance, and operational KPIs.

●     Support the development and launch of new revenue programs and pilots, including jobs boards, underwriting packages, and merchandise initiatives.

●     Evaluate new and evolving revenue programs using clear success criteria and ROI to inform iteration, scaling, or retirement.

●     Document workflows, test processes, and coordinate operational rollouts for new revenue features and offerings.

●     Represent High Country News externally in revenue‑related correspondence, partner conversations, and select conferences or events.

●     Contribute to inclusive, respectful, and effective practices that support diverse audiences and communities.
