Loughton, Essex office based five days a week
How often do you get to launch a major new consumer event without starting from scratch?
You’ll have the reputation, audience and commercial pull of a major established exhibition brand behind you, but with a new proposition to shape and revenue to build.
Your job is simple to describe, but difficult to do well.
Secure standout sponsors. Fill the show floor with the right brands. Build a high-performing sales team. Make the launch commercially impossible to ignore.
This is a player-manager role. You’ll personally lead major pitches and negotiations while setting the pace, focus and standards for the wider team.
You’ll be responsible for:
- Winning high-value sponsorship, experiential and exhibition deals
- Building the commercial proposition, packages and pricing strategy
- Creating and converting a strong new-business pipeline
- Leading, coaching and challenging the sales team
- Developing relationships with major brands and industry partners
- Working across marketing, content and operations to deliver brilliant activations
You’ll already have a strong track record in sponsorship or exhibition sales, with clear evidence of growing revenue across large-scale events.
You’ll know how to open doors, pitch senior decision-makers and close significant deals. Just as importantly, you’ll know how to turn a group of salespeople into a focused, accountable team.
The package includes:
- Uncapped commission
- Discretionary bonus
- 25 days’ annual leave
- Enhanced maternity and paternity leave
- Your birthday off
This role is based in Loughton, Essex, five days a week with no hybrid or home-working option.
