We're hiring for a New Business Manager / Head of Sales to lead commercial growth for a high-impact ticketing platform—working with some of the biggest names in sport, live events, and entertainment.

What’s in it for you:

• £70K base salary + Big bonus structure
• Hybrid working – 3–4 days in Manchester office or out with clients
• Autonomy to own your patch and influence sales strategy
• A fast-paced, social, high-performing team environment
• Huge opportunity for progression as the business scales

What you'll be doing:

• Winning new business across sports, hospitality, travel-linked events, venues, and promoters
• Converting warm leads and working with pipeline data to grow long-term clients
• Working closely with Account Managers to maximise revenue from existing accounts
• Managing the full sales cycle—from prospecting to pitch to close
• Advising clients on how to optimise ticket sales through the platform
• Owning commercial growth strategy and transaction-based revenue

We’re looking for someone with:
