Sales Planner

About the role

We’re seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Sales Planner to join the AMP Sports Ad Sales team. This role is responsible for supporting the pre-sale and mid-flight operational process — developing accurate, strategic media plans and ensuring smooth campaign delivery across Digital, Linear, Social, and Audio platforms. The Sales Planner works closely with Sales, Pricing & Planning, Inventory, and Ad Operations to ensure proposals, billing, and reporting are precise and aligned with business goals.

• Own the preparation and accuracy of campaign performance reports, surfacing results and pacing updates to the Account Manager for client delivery.
• Partner with Campaign Management and Finance to reconcile billing, delivery, and revenue discrepancies.
• Maintain up-to-date records of booked revenue, flight dates, and campaign changes to ensure accurate financial reporting.
• Provide proactive visibility into any pacing or delivery concerns that may impact revenue or performance to Account Management and Sales.
