Membership Manager in Bristol

Location: Bristol

Salary: £30,000-£35,000 basic + commission

Contract: Permanent, Full Time

Start: ASAP

We’re looking for a commercially driven Workspace Sales Manager to take ownership of sales and membership growth for an exciting premium workspace business in Bristol. This is a relationship-led sales role where you’ll manage the full journey; from generating and responding to enquiries through to conducting tours, preparing proposals, negotiating terms and closing deals. You’ll be representing a beautifully designed, high-quality workspace proposition, selling not just office space but the experience, community and professional network that come with membership.

What you’ll be doing:

• Manage incoming sales enquiries from initial contact through to signed agreement.
• Qualify prospects and understand their business, space, budget and timescale requirements.
• Conduct engaging building tours that bring the workspace and membership experience to life.
• Prepare tailored proposals and membership packages.
• Follow up opportunities consistently and keep prospects engaged throughout the process.
• Negotiate commercial terms and confidently close new business.
• Build and maintain an accurate sales pipeline and CRM.
• Work toward agreed occupancy, revenue and conversion targets.
• Generate new opportunities through proactive outreach and business development.
• Build strong relationships with commercial property agents, flexible-office brokers and referral partners.
• Attend relevant Bristol business, property and networking events.
• Develop a visible presence within the local business community.
• Build relationships with existing members and identify expansion, renewal and referral opportunities.
• Monitor availability, pricing, competitors and wider market activity.
• Produce accurate pipeline, forecasting and performance updates.
• Work closely with the operations team to ensure a seamless transition from prospect to member.
• Support launches, events and other activities that generate enquiries and strengthen the brand.

About you:

We’re looking for someone who is commercially ambitious but understands that premium sales are built through trust, credibility and an exceptional customer experience. You’ll ideally have:

• Proven experience in B2B, consultative or relationship-led sales.
• Experience managing a pipeline and taking opportunities through to close.
• Confidence conducting tours, presenting solutions and negotiating terms.
• A strong record of working toward sales or revenue targets.
• Excellent follow-up discipline and attention to detail.
• The confidence to generate new business rather than relying solely on inbound leads.
• Strong networking and relationship-building skills.
• The ability to communicate credibly with founders, executives and senior decision-makers.
• A polished, professional and personable approach.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Commercial curiosity and an understanding of what influences buying decisions.
• The ability to work independently and take ownership of results.
• Experience within flexible workspace, serviced offices, commercial property, memberships, private members’ clubs, hospitality, luxury retail or another premium customer environment would be advantageous.
• An existing Bristol business or property network would be useful, but isn’t essential. The confidence and motivation to build one are more important.

What’s on offer?

• £30,000-£35,000 basic salary.
• Commission based on completed deals.
• Ownership of the sales pipeline across a growing Bristol portfolio.
• The opportunity to build a strong profile within the local business community.
• A premium workspace proposition you can be proud to represent.
• Genuine scope to influence commercial growth as the business develops.

If you’re an ambitious relationship-builder who enjoys owning the full sales process and selling an experience rather than simply a product, we’d love to hear from you.
