Using that insight, you will win new business, build lasting partnerships and develop opportunities for repeat revenue.

This is a senior commercial position with clear ownership of results and the opportunity to shape how the business approaches its market.

What you will be doing

• Work closely with SDRs to shape pipeline strategy and prioritise the strongest opportunities.
• Share market insight with colleagues across sales, marketing and client teams.
• Ensure smooth handovers so campaigns are delivered effectively.
• Manage your pipeline, forecasts and reporting accurately in Salesforce.
• Use client feedback and campaign results to refine your approach and grow repeat business.

What you will need

You are a commercially sharp sales professional who enjoys taking ownership of a market and building relationships that last.

• A proven track record of achieving revenue targets in B2B, media or solutions-led sales.
• Confidence winning new business and influencing senior stakeholders.
• The ability to understand client objectives and turn them into compelling proposals.
• Strong organisation and forecasting skills, with the ability to manage several opportunities at once.
• A focus on long-term partnerships as well as new business wins.
• The drive to succeed in a fast-paced, growing commercial team.

Experience in media sales, advertising or event-led partnerships would be an advantage, as would experience working within a category-led sales structure.

Why apply
