Metro is Hiring!

Metro magazine, a leading lifestyle and current affairs publication in Auckland, is looking for a dynamic and results-driven Commercial Manager to join our team.

Are you a driven and innovative sales professional with a knack for seeing the bigger picture? This opportunity will see you being part of Metro, you’ll need to think creatively, bring fresh ideas to their commercial activity, and thrive in a small but mighty team. You’ll collaborate closely with others while also taking charge of your own projects and initiatives.

The successful candidate will play a key role in shaping the success of Metro magazine, building and maintaining strong relationships with clients and increasing the presence of the Metro brand in Auckland and across Aotearoa.

This is a full-time, permanent position to be worked at our office on Karangahape Rd (pictured), though hours and flexi remote working is negotiable for the right candidate.
