This is a rare opportunity to join a highly respected international events company at a pivotal moment of growth.

• Provide consultative sales, tailoring packages to sponsor needs

• Proven track record in sponsorship sales within a B2B events environment (ideally corporate or financial conferences)
• Familiarity with the legal, private equity, or financial services sectors
• Strategic, consultative sales approach with strong relationship-building skills
• Entrepreneurial mindset – excited by the chance to be the first hire in a growing sales team
• Self-starter – comfortable working remotely or from the New York office

Why Join?

• Inherit a successful portfolio with outstanding rebook rates
• Be the first salesperson in the business – shape your role and make a tangible impact
