Job description

Associate Publisher

Milestone Communications Inc., publisher of Monterey County Weekly (the newspaper), www.montereycountynow.com (website), Monterey County NOW (daily e-newsletter) and the Best of Monterey Bay® magazines, is recruiting for a newly created position, Associate Publisher. This is a senior level leadership position created to increase the company’s capacity to continue to succeed.

This job will demand intelligence, flexibility, patience and fortitude. The chosen candidate will be joining a thriving media company where for the past 36-plus years good journalism has made for good business.

About Us: Our company is local and independently owned and operated. One-third of our staff has worked with us more than 20 years; over half has been on our team more than 15 years. That speaks volumes. We are unapologetically committed to quality journalism and very responsive to our three main constituencies: our audience, advertisers and employees. We make a difference in our community; we know and value that. In 2024 the Weekly earned First Place General Excellence (the highest honor) at the California Journalism Awards.

We have learned that flexibility and perseverance are in our DNA. We have reinvented ourselves repeatedly to remain relevant and vital, and respond to the multiple challenges facing independent media organizations. We are now the largest print media in the county, known for our leadership, innovation and commitment to the community. We pride ourselves for thriving in these volatile times, meeting budgets and deadlines, generating profits.

We’re by no means perfect. We’ve made a whole bunch of lousy decisions, too, but we’re hoping the decision to hire you is one of our good ones.

About You: The right candidate will have both nuance and smarts to manage the diversity of opinions and people that define our company and the community at-large. Media experience is required.

While the specific responsibilities are sure to evolve and change, the Associate Publisher will be focused foremost on revenue and also involved with most other aspects of the company. Specific duties will include sales, sales management, planning, marketing, budgeting, vendor relations and even some human resources. Responsibilities throughout the company will expand as you become proficient and knowledgeable of our organization.

As Associate Publisher you will be an integral member of our management team, working closely with the publisher and CEO to learn all aspects of the operation of Milestone Communications Inc. We want you to thrive and grow into our next generation of leadership.

This position is full time, exempt, and may require a flexible schedule (depending on events). Salary range is $90,000 - $120,000 /year, plus performance bonus, depending on experience, with an excellent benefits package.
