Location: Hybrid (Hertford-based)
Salary: Up to £30K base, OTE £44K+ (uncapped commissions)
About the Role
We're seeking a driven Event Sales Manager to take ownership of two major B2B events per year - along with their associated media and newsletter platforms.
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious Sales Executive ready to step into a manager role, or for an existing Event/Sales Manager eager to grow in a fast-paced, high-reward environment.
You'll manage your own portfolio, nurture long-term client relationships, and play a key role in delivering successful events end-to-end.
Key Responsibilities

Achieve and exceed revenue targets through effective pipeline management.
Conduct consultative sales calls to understand client needs and position tailored event and media solutions.
Build and maintain strong, long-term client relationships.
Lead all pre-event sales activities, planning, and client engagement.
Deliver a seamless event experience aligned with client expectations to secure strong rebook rates.
Attend assigned events and support others across the wider portfolio.
Identify new market opportunities and provide feedback on event trends.
Represent the business at industry events and networking functions.
Maintain accurate and efficient use of CRM systems and sales processes.

What We're Looking For

Minimum 2 years of B2B sales experience, ideally within events, media, or memberships (experience in technology-focused events highly advantageous).
Proven ability to exceed sales targets and deliver commercial growth.
Confident communicator and negotiator with a consultative approach.
Capable of managing existing accounts while developing new business opportunities.
Strong organisational skills and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment.
Positive, proactive, and collaborative team player.

Desirable Experience:

Background in Cyber Security, Customer Experience (CX)/Contact Centres, or Ecommerce events.

What's on Offer

Competitive base salary up to £30K plus uncapped commission (OTE £44K+).
Additional % commission on over-performance.
Hybrid working model with flexibility.
Clear career progression via an internal academy and training framework.
Monthly team incentives and rewards.
Annual company-wide summer and Christmas events.
Access to an Elite Sales Achievement Club.
Loyalty-based additional annual leave.
Free on-site parking.

Who This Role Suits
You'll thrive here if you're motivated by ownership, autonomy, and the chance to make a visible impact.
If you've worked in technology-driven events, memberships, or B2B environments - and want to step up into a leadership role - this is an excellent opportunity to accelerate your career.
