Job description

WE’RE HIRING | Sales Manager – Exhibitions & Brand Experiences

At Pro Expo, we design and build exhibition stands and brand experiences for companies that want to stand out at the world's biggest trade shows.

With our own production facilities in Spain and Poland, we control quality from the first sketch to the final build, and we're growing our position as a strategic brand experience partner rather than just a stand builder.

We're looking for an ambitious Sales Manager to join our team and help drive that growth.

What you'll be doing

• You'll hunt for new business across our key sectors and shows, identifying the right companies, opening doors and turning first conversations into signed projects. At the same time, you'll look after a portfolio of existing clients, building relationships that last well beyond a single event and growing those accounts across their wider show calendar.

• You'll work closely with our creative, project management and production teams to shape proposals that genuinely answer each client's brief. You'll manage your own pipeline in HubSpot, keep your forecasts honest, and bring a commercial eye to every opportunity, weighing value and long-term potential.

• You'll also spend time on the show floor at major international fairs, meeting prospects face to face and representing Proexpo in person.

What we're looking for

• You have a proven track record in B2B sales in the exhibition sector, with results you can point to: new clients won, targets hit and accounts grown over time. You're a natural hunter who enjoys the chase of winning new business, but you also understand that the best business comes from relationships built over time. You're confident speaking with marketing and events leads at international companies, and comfortable handling the full sales cycle from prospecting through to negotiation and close.

• Ideally your experience will be within exhibitions, events, experiential marketing or a related field. Fluent English is essential, and additional European languages are a real advantage. You're organised, resilient, happy to travel, and motivated by clear targets.

What we offer

A competitive package with commission, the chance to work on high-profile projects for global brands, and a supportive team that values people as much as results. You'll join a company in a period of real growth, where your ideas and energy will make a visible difference.
