Sales Operations Executive, The Botanics Trading Company

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) is one of the world’s top four botanic gardens based on the quality, breadth and depth of our science, plant collections, public engagement, and education. The Botanics Trading Company (BTC) is our wholly owned subsidiary and manages all our trading activity, including all our retail and catering offers, with profits being gift-aided back to RBGE.

We are looking for a highly organised and personable Sales Operations Executive to support and drive the success of our Commercial Services team. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced sales environment, excels at managing the sales pipeline, and brings precision and energy to every client interaction. You’ll play a key role in ensuring the smooth administration of the sales process—from lead tracking to contracting and invoicing—while helping to grow revenue across our diverse commercial portfolio.

A proactive can-do attitude is an essential part of this role with applicants having previous experience of working in a fast-paced event sales environment. Excellent communication skills and attention to detail are essential, along with flexibility and the drive and hunger to support the team to win business along with contributing themselves to sales.
