We can offer a generous basic plus uncapped commission, working from our modern site in Farnborough.

This role would suit candidates who have already gained sales or account management experience ideally in a B2B environment and are now seeking the next step in their career with the opportunity to join a well respected industry leader in our sector.

• Keep client database up-to-date via a CRM system with new and existing contacts
• Work with designers and production team to ensure the smooth transition of client advertising campaigns
• Collaborate with team members to consider new projects and/or brand extensions to drive revenue streams
• As an international business, on occasion you may be required to work outside normal business hours

Experience and skills:
• Training on our brands will be provided but we are looking for a minimum of one to two years sales experience, preferably in a B2B environment (media background an advantage)
• Demonstrate a good sales technique, including negotiation skills and over-coming objections
• Proven track record in delivering on sales growth and business development
• Demonstrate an overall professional approach to the sales function
• With strict deadlines, demonstrate the ability to handle pressure situations
• Confident individual with a creative approach
• Enthusiastic and driven to get the job done
• The ability to work on own initiative
• Good communication skills, both written and verbally
• The ability to adapt as negotiations will be conducted with people from various cultures
• Being comfortable in travelling internationally, on some occasions potentially alone
• Good IT skills with knowledge of using MS Office, as well as video calling platforms such as MS Teams and/or Zoom
• Experience with CRM software is an advantage

The role encompasses a wide and varied range of business development activities offering the perfect opportunity for someone who has a desire to develop a long-term career in sales.
This is an exciting opportunity offering a varied role providing a different challenge each day. We are a modern, vibrant and dynamic publishing and events company with continuing plans to expand. The right candidate can expect to develop their abilities with real career prospects. In return we can offer the opportunity to build upon your existing sales or account management experience, working for a local employer at modern offices in Farnborough with excellent onsite facilities, uncapped commission and career development.
