Working Student - Sales Planning & Creative Pitch Support (m/f/d)

About Acast

Since 2014, Acast has been building the world’s most valuable podcast marketplace, creating the technology that connects podcast creators, advertisers, and listeners. Its marketplace spans more than 140,000 podcasts, 3,300 advertisers, and one billion quarterly listens. Crucially, those listens are monetized wherever they happen—across any podcast app or listening platform.

In Germany we have the pleasure to work with podcasts like Drinnies, Das Podcast Ufo, So bin ich eben!, Die Jägerin, Kaffee mit Zitrone, Hollywood “Mom”, Unter uns gesagt, Spaßgetränk and many more.

About The Role

In this role, you are the secret weapon behind our sales success. You bridge the gap between media planning and visual storytelling. Brands love podcasts because they are emotional – and our sales materials need to reflect that. Your main mission will be to take raw info, standard media plans, and complex RFPs, and turn them into visually stunning, high-converting sales decks that leave a lasting impression on top-tier brands and agencies. Additionally, you will support the sales planning team in everyday tasks to ensure seamless campaign delivery. Lastly, our social media team is always happy to integrate another person with great ideas and an eye for aesthetics.

The start date for the role would be in the beginning of August, however we are flexible to move it around a bit.

• Make our materials shine: You take our existing media plans, texts, and seasonal packages and give them a professional, clean, and modern look. You make sure our sales decks look premium and engaging.
