Are you currently working in delegate sales and looking for that step up? Want to work for a global event business? Be part of a growing team with high ambitions?

If yes, this could be the ideal role for you!

The Client:

Based out of their central London office, this business is known across the UK and the rest of the world. They’ve organised exhibitions, summits, and conferences for almost two decades. With that in mind, they certainly know what they’re doing and have won plenty of awards!

They specialise in arranging pre-qualified 1-2-1 style meetings between c-suite executives and buyers and sellers. They also host conferences to discuss key industry topics with these high-level individuals.

The Position:

As a Senior Sales Executive, you’ll be responsible for the entire sales cycle, including generating your own leads, building relationships, creating proposals, and closing opportunities. The hard work is down to you, and the rewards are yours.

This business offers in-depth training to equip you with the skills to deliver the best results and continue your career development. The company is continually growing, offering plenty of progression opportunities.

You’ll have the opportunity to work with lapsed and current clients and forge new relationships, selling sponsorship packages, 1-2-1 meetings, and data to your clients.

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, ambitious, and experienced in sales, ideally from a delegate background.

This role is hybrid, with three days a week in the office.

About you:

We’re looking for someone with delegate sales experience who knows how to generate new business, close sales, and build relationships. Someone comfortable with KPIs and eager to progress their career. The sales values are likely higher on average, so adaptability and a willingness to learn are essential.

• 1-2 years of delegate sales experience, ideally selling sponsorship or tickets
• Ambitious, driven, and motivated
• Experienced in both new and repeat business
• Experience selling B2B meeting opportunities is a plus but not essential
• Extensive knowledge of the event industry
• Drive to succeed and learn

You get the chance to be part of one of the biggest events companies in the UK and join a growing team with great aspirations. The commission scheme offers significant earning potential with a structured plan for years 1, 2, and 3, increasing your earnings annually.
