We're expanding our events team in Liverpool and looking for an enthusiastic Event Sales Executive to drive the success of our flagship Primary Care Health Show. This isn’t just a sales role, it’s your chance to contribute to meaningful change in the healthcare sector.

This is a hybrid rolewith three in-office days at our Liverpool office. The starting salary is £30,000 plus c. £10,000OTE and companybenefits.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Be an integral part of an event that sparks real change in primary care. Imagine the thrill of walking onto a buzzing show floor, knowing your efforts helped make it happen. That sense of accomplishment is what makes event sales truly rewarding.

Key Responsibilities:

• Chase New Business: Experience the excitement of discovering and securing new clients eager to showcase their brands at our event. Your role is essential in bringing fresh energy to the show and canvassing new business.
• Share the Excitement: Introduce businesses to the benefits of exhibiting at our Primary Care Show. Your enthusiasm will inspire clients as you demonstrate how their participation can elevate their business.
• Build Strong Relationships: Connect with new clients, nurture these relationships, and become a trusted partner. Your ability to understand and meet their needs will be key to their success.
• See Your Work Come to Life: Step onto the show floor and feel the reward of seeing your hard work materialise. The vibrant event around you will be a direct result of your dedication and passion.
• Be a Key Industry Player: Deepen your knowledge of the primary care landscape to create customised packages that maximise your clients' impact. Build relationships with industry leaders, uncover emerging trends, and secure partnerships that keep our event at the forefront of healthcare innovation.
• Collaborate for Success: Work closely with our marketing and operations teams to ensure every aspect of the show runs smoothly, ensuring a seamless experience for everyone involved.

What We’re Looking For:

You’ll excel in this role if you have a passion for sales and a love for live events. Whether you come from an exhibition/events sales background or have a strong desire to break into the field, your drive and enthusiasm will help you connect with clients and achieve your goals. If hitting targets and seeing your work translate into successful events motivates you, this is the role for you.

We want to see your personality and transferable skills shine. To stand out, you can:

• Upload a video introduction about yourself.
• Submit a cover letter that highlights your enthusiasm and fit for this role.
• Request a recommendation from someone who can vouch for your potential.
