MiniMBA
MiniMBA was founded in 2016 by Professor Mark Ritson to make MBA-level marketing education accessible, practical and transformative, without the time or cost of a traditional two-year MBA.
It has since trained more than 40,000 marketers across dozens of countries, built a genuinely respected alumni community, and formed partnerships with organisations including ADWEEK and The Marketing Society.
2027 brings a new wave of shorter, lower-price-point course electives alongside the core programmes, opening up new buyers and a new stage of growth for the business.
The team
You'd be joining a small, established and successful sales team, several of whom have been part of the MiniMBA story for years, working closely alongside the Commercial Director who leads from the front.
The role
This is a new role, created to drive MiniMBA's new, shorter, lower-price-point course electives launching in 2027. The strategy and research are already done, and a strong line-up of well-known marketing authors is on board, so this role is about owning execution: high-volume, high-energy selling across the whole market.
You'll be proactive, as well starting from a warm pipeline, you will build your own pipeline, working alongside a wider sales team who'll also be selling the new courses into their own accounts. Over time, there's real scope to own the whole new course sector and potentially lead a team as it grows.
What you'll own
- Build and run a structured, high-volume pipeline from day one, prospecting at pace across marketing, learning and development, and adjacent buyer types.
- Be the main driver of MiniMBA's new-course revenue, working alongside a wider team who each carry a smaller new-course number of their own.
- Build relationships with the decision-makers who buy short, applied business education, and become the person the team turns to on how these courses sell.
- Help shape how MiniMBA takes a growing portfolio of new courses to market as it scales through 2027 and beyond.
What we're looking for
- A proven high-volume B2B new-business seller, used to short sales cycles and comfortable building your own pipeline from scratch.
- A consistent track record of hitting target.
- High energy and drive: a self-starter who can run outbound at real pace.
- Existing access to the market, marketing, learning and development, or similar buyers, so you can start generating pipeline quickly.
- A professional, collaborative style, comfortable working alongside an established sales team.
Nice to have
- Experience selling short courses, training or other lower-price-point products.
- An existing network of marketing contacts.
- Experience taking a new product or launch to market.
- A SaaS or inside-sales background with structured qualification.
- An appetite to own a sector and grow into leading a team over time.
Why this role matters
New courses are where a meaningful share of MiniMBA's future growth is expected to come from. The strategy, the research and the content are already in place; this is the role that turns that into revenue, and there's a genuine path to owning the sector as it grows.
