Job description

CoreGo is an event technology company powering large-scale events and festivals. Our seamless payment and access control solutions ensure smooth operations and effortless experiences for attendees and organizers alike. Combining technical innovation with deep industry expertise, we help bring ambitious live experiences to life.

We are looking for an ambitious, business-driven Account Executive to build and grow Corego’s customer base in the UK market. The employee should preferably be based in the greater London area and be willing to travel, primarily within the UK.

Since this is not a traditional sales role, we appreciate min.3-yearexperience and network from event, venue and entertainment industry. We’re looking for someone who deeply understands their part of the event and venue business — and can translate that understanding into tangible growth for our customers.

We welcome applications from both experienced Account Executives/ Managers and candidates who have gained experience within the event, venue, sports, entertainment, or hospitality industries and are looking to transition into a commercial role. Whether your background is in sales, operations, partnerships, marketing, production, or customer experience, we value your industry understanding, curiosity, and ambition to help customers grow their business.

Whatyou’lldo

Your primary responsibility is to launch and scale Corego's business presence in the UK market by acquiring and developing customers across the live events industry. Your focus will include festival (music, city and cultural festivals), event venues, event and production companies, catering operators and other event industry businesses.

You identify high-value opportunities within these segments and independently drive the full sales cycle—from first contact to closing and ongoing account development. Your focus is on building scalable, long-term customer relationships while also developing strategic partnerships aligned with Corego's growth objectives.

You lead accounts relationships with a business-first mindset, understanding how organizers, venues, and event operators generate revenue before, during, and after events—and identifying where Corego can increase revenue, improve operational efficiency, and enhance the customer experience.

You create value-based commercial proposals by combining Corego's solutions—including payments, access control, data, networking, and sales activation—into measurable business outcomes tailored to each customer segment.

You work closely with Customer Marketing and Growth teams to ensure that the sales promise translates into real, measurable customer success. You also bring valuable market insights back to our marketing and product development teams.

As Corego's representative in the UK, you build trusted relationships with owners, executives, commercial leaders, and event professionals, positioning Corego as a long-term business partner rather than simply a technology vendor.

You stay actively involved after the sale to support successful onboarding, customer adoption, and early-stage account growth.

Practical Information

This is a permanent, full-time position. The position will be filled as soon as a suitable candidate is found.

Our office is based in London, with travel required as part of the role. We also offer flexible remote work options.

Please note that a valid work permit for the UK is required for this position.

Who you are

Whether you already have deep experience in the event industry or are earlier in your commercial career, you are genuinely curious about your customers' business and motivated to understand their goals, challenges, and opportunities. You build credibility through thoughtful questions, active listening, and a proactive approach to creating value.

You are curious and genuinely interested in how your customers can succeed.

You act proactively and drive initiatives end-to-end with confidence.

You combine positive energy with a results-driven mindset. You build relationships naturally and act as a trusted advisor to your customers.

Your customers and partners quickly recognize you as someone who understands their reality without needing it explained.

We welcome applications from both experienced sales professionals and earlier-career candidates with strong commercial potential. What matters most is your curiosity, drive, and ability to build trusted customer relationships.

Nice to have

• Experience across different event and venue environments (festivals, stadiums, clubs, etc.) min.3 years.
• International experience or experience building a market from scratch
• Experience or interest data-driven sales and account development
• Existing network within the UK event and venue ecosystem

Why Corego?

• Work with meaningful, growth-driven solutions— our technology powers seamless payment and access experiences for hundreds of thousands of people at some of Europe's most memorable live events, giving you a dynamic, forward-looking environment to build and grow in.
• Take on real ownership— you'll have genuine influence over how our data platform evolves, with the trust and space to shape decisions rather than just execute on them.
• Grow with an international team— you'll collaborate closely with experienced colleagues, contributing to CoreGo's international journey.
• Enjoy a culture that balances ambition and authenticity— we're professional, driven, and down-to-earth. We take our work seriously, without taking ourselves too seriously.
