Sales Team Leader – Exciting Events Industry Role

About Our Client

Our client is a well-established and highly respected name in the corporate events industry. Since 1989, they’ve grown to become a leader in technical production and creative services, with operations across the UK and Europe. Their recent integration into a larger events group has expanded their capabilities even further, allowing them to deliver an unrivalled suite of event technology, production, and digital solutions.

At the heart of their success lies a passion for innovation. Technology isn’t just something they use—it’s part of their DNA. Their approach is creative, forward-thinking, and always tailored to delivering event experiences that resonate with audiences and align perfectly with each brand’s message.

The Role: Sales Team Leader

This is an exciting opportunity for a driven and experienced sales professional to step into a leadership position within a high-performing exhibitor sales team.

You’ll need to demonstrate:

• Experience using Salesforce or similar CRM platforms
• Strong Microsoft Word and Excel skills
• Exceptional organisational ability and attention to detail
• A knack for analysing sales data and making data-driven decisions
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
