So pleased we have been given the opportunity to work on this role with a brand new client!

We’re looking to speak with some superstar Event Sales Managers who have a proven track record selling stands & sponsorship packages into the Exhibition & Conferencing market.

Who will I be working with?

  • A small but awesome privately owned event business that has operated in the cultural sector for the past 30 years
  • A tight knit team of 5 people who range in skill and expertise in event delivery, content, marketing, advertising and sales

What do they do?

  • Own and deliver a range of events for the cultural sector in the UK which include an exhibition & awards dinner and publish their own magazine online
  • They work with anyone who touches the cultural sector from exhibition planners to technical & production houses to companies supplying merchandise centres sell – it’s a huge pool to say the least!

What will I be doing?

  • Ultimately responsible for the sales process which is focused on bringing in sponsors and exhibitor stands for an annual series of events
  • Leveraging existing relationships and building on an existing CRM of current clients, prospects and new leads that you source

What do they need from me?

  • Happy with a remote role and the autonomy that brings with it
  • Experience selling in the exhibition market – both stands & sponsor packages
  • An interest in the cultural sector will be a bonus
  • Likes working in a consultative way and not a pure phone hammerer - although you will need to make some phone calls - you know what I mean!
