Role shaped around the right person. Scope and structure are genuinely flexible. Long-term relationship KPIs, not short-term revenue targets. Profit share and bonus structure discussed as the role develops. Senior-level package commensurate with experience.
The Company: This is a boutique event production agency that works exclusively with agencies, suppliers and select associations. Pure delivery and technical production at scale, with no creative or strategy overhead. Growth has come through referrals and repeat relationships rather than sales teams, and the culture reflects that: entrepreneurial, collaborative and focused on doing the work well. Senior staff are billable alongside the broader delivery team, which keeps the business grounded.
The Role: The Event Production Sales Director is a new position created to support the business in diversifying its client base, reaching associations, medical congresses, venues, suppliers and smaller agencies. A new business focused role responsibilities include:
- Supporting the diversification of the client base beyond the existing agency ecosystem
- Leading business conversations from initial discovery through to proposal and win
- Building a long-term pipeline focused on repeat relationships, not one-off wins
- Strengthening and developing relationships
- Working directly with the senior leadership team to shape new service lines
- Representing the business with credibility built on deep production knowledge
The Candidate: The right candidate for the Event Production Sales Director will have a proven track record in sales ideally with large-scale corporate and conference event production, the kind of work where the logistics are complex, the audiences are significant and the delivery has to be right first time. Alongside that they will have opened doors and built pipelines in a B2B environment, winning clients through expertise and relationship rather than traditional sales.
