Sponsorship Sales Executive - B2B Events
Salary up to £50,000 FTE base (pro rata), plus commission. OTE £65,000 to £80,000 FTE
Part time, 2-3 days a week
Fully remote, UK based, with attendance required at London events
About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to join a respected private membership community for senior finance leaders in high growth technology businesses, in a part time, fully remote sales role.
The community brings finance leaders together to share knowledge, solve problems and learn from each other through roundtables, panels, expert sessions, networking events and digital channels. Sponsors are technology, platform and professional services providers who support modern finance teams, from ambitious scale ups to established market leaders.
What makes this proposition different is the approach. Sponsors join as trusted experts, not vendors with a sales deck. Partnerships are built around annual programmes that create familiarity and credibility over time, and several sponsors have stayed with the business for many years. This means you will be selling something genuinely valued by both members and partners, with real scope for renewals and upsells.
You will report directly to the Founder and work closely with a small, collaborative team. The business is extending its sponsor offering into 2027, so you will have the chance to shape new packages and play a visible part in its commercial growth.
What the Role Involves
- Generating new business with technology and professional services brands that want meaningful relationships with senior finance leaders
- Getting to know each prospect's goals, buying timelines and budget cycles, then shaping a partnership that delivers for them
- Selling a mix of annual partnership programmes and shorter introductory packages across live events, virtual sessions and digital channels
- Taking deals from first conversation through to signature, and making sure every new partner is set up for success from day one
- Growing your existing accounts over time, spotting opportunities to renew and expand
- Keeping your CRM, pipeline and forecasts in good order so you always know where you stand against target
- Working alongside the Founder and the events, marketing and community teams so partners have a great experience at every touchpoint
- Attending occasional events to build your network and bring back insight that helps improve the offering
What You'll Need
- A strong track record selling sponsorship, partnerships, media or B2B events
- The ability to run a sale from start to finish on your own, from finding the opportunity to growing the account
- A relationship led selling style. This is a community where trust matters more than a hard close
- Excellent organisation, with the discipline to build and manage your own pipeline while working remotely
- Drive, resilience and a genuine appetite for hitting and beating targets
- Comfort using CRM systems, AI and research tools to work smarter
- Curiosity about finance, fintech and the challenges facing modern finance teams
- A team player attitude and a willingness to roll up your sleeves when the business needs
