The Company
This exciting company is a media and production business specialising in the global live music and entertainment industries. A market leader in all our areas of operation, they have the experience, the resource and the know-how to deliver at any level in any territory. The company is at the forefront of growing the live music market's use of ever more innovative big screens. For advertisers, they provide a unique opportunity to target a valuable, captive and highly-targeted audience by using the power and impact of big screens and the artist or venue's own audio system.
The Role
Part of the creative challenge is to understand the audience for forthcoming events and then to "sell" those audiences to the right set of advertisers. While we have great, long-standing relationships with scores of advertisers, the nature of the business means that, at some stage, everybody is a potential client.
Day to day tasks include:
* Being pro-active with media agencies and clients; understanding and anticipating their needs
* Reacting to business and market intelligence
* Researching artists and audiences
* Creating compelling one-off presentations
* Selling in to media agencies and clients
* Liaising with the production department to deliver the creative solutions sold
The Candidate
The role will be perfect for someone who has a track record of outstanding performance in media sales. The candidate is likely to have a well-developed network of media agency and client contacts.
Key attributes to include:
* Confident, personable and articulate
* Strong presentation skills.
* Enjoy the challenge of developing new business while also managing existing accounts.
* An enthusiasm for live entertainment
* Flexibility to attend events with agency and advertiser customers would be an advantage.
The company has recently consolidated their business in smart new premises in Soho. This is a chance to join a great group of people at an ambitious business operating in a fast-growing and fun market.
