Job description
Position: Digital Sales Manager
Reporting to: Sales Director
Location: London Hybrid
Salary: £35k + OTE
The opportunity
We are working with a commercial membership association of payments industry influencers. It delivers projects to drive change, helps to connect the ecosystem, encourages innovation and profitable business growth and runs more than 70 events each year. The TPA’s vision is for the UK to be the global hotspot for payments innovation.
Its members come from across the payments value chain; including payments schemes, banks and issuers, merchant acquirers, PSPs, retailers, and more. These companies have come together, from across the UK and internationally, to join our association, collaborate, and speak with a unified voice.
Due to their ongoing growth, they are now looking for an accomplished and talented Digital sales professional to deliver its enhanced digital inventory of products.
The successful candidate will have at least 4 years’ experience in digital sales within a B2B media environment (ideally within a financial or technology environment). They will be self-motivated, target-oriented, ready to leap straight in and will be an effective team player. The role will require an intelligent, insight-led sales approach due to the levels of the suite of digital inventory opportunities, considering the potential to cross-sell between products (digital advertising, branded content, sponsored reports, newsletters and webinars etc).
Main Responsibilities:
This is an unrivalled opportunity for someone who has plenty of drive and enthusiasm for digital sales. We are ideally looking for someone with experience and knowledge in the Payments/Tech industry and with a clear interest in being a pivotal member of the team. This role will require self-discipline and motivation. The ideal candidate will have wide-ranging media knowledge, excellent commercial acumen, great communication skills, and a proven track record of selling to senior stakeholders.
