Job Summary

The business manager will oversee:

  • Advertising. The manager will be responsible for the sale of advertising space in Pioneer (by actually selling ads or managing their sale by others), coordinating ad contracts with customers, collecting ad layouts from buyers to place in the paper and invoicing customers for the ads.
  • Staff invoicing. The manager will be responsible for tracking the amounts owed to published contributors, developing invoices for them and coordinating appropriate paperwork with the CCA and Finance departments to ensure prompt payment.
  • Newspaper expenses. The manager will be the financial-side facilitator of all Pioneer purchases – from office supplies to marketing materials, technology acquisitions to distribution costs. In some cases, this will mean working with office staff, outside vendors or other university departments.
  • Ordering supplies. The manager will buy office supplies for Pioneer, coordinating through the university’s purchasing system where appropriate.
  • Newspaper financials. The manager will meet regularly with our university financial contacts to track the Pioneer’s finances, ensure that bills are paid in timely fashion and make sure advertisers pay their bills. In addition, the manager must present a monthly report on the paper’s finances to the editor-in-chief and advisor.

Pay

The business manager will be paid in two ways:

  • Salary. The position requires the student to work six hours per week to manage Pioneer finances, including invoicing and bill processing. That time must be recorded through webclock and approved by the advisor.
  • Commission. The sale of advertising will be compensated through a 25% commission paid to the selling student as advertisers pay their invoices. Non-college organizations currently pay $200 for a full-page advertisement (and lesser amounts for fractional pages). Under this arrangement, the student selling a full-page ad would receive $50 each time the full-page ad appears.
