Sponsorship Sales Manager

Sponsorship Sales Manager – Professional Services Events

Central London (Hybrid)

£50,000 basic + uncapped commission (OTE £70k+ Year 1, six figures from Year 2)

If you're an experienced sponsorship sales professional who enjoys building senior-level relationships and selling consultative partnerships rather than transactional event packages, this is an opportunity to join a high-growth events business with an outstanding reputation in the professional services sector.

The business has delivered consistent double-digit growth year-on-year since launch and has built a strong reputation for quality, client retention and employee development.

Unlike traditional sponsorship models, the focus is on creating meaningful introductions and highly targeted one-to-one meetings between sponsors and senior decision-makers, delivering measurable commercial value for all parties involved.

What you'll be doing

• Selling sponsorship partnerships across a portfolio of established professional services events
• Building relationships with senior decision-makers and commercial leaders
• Generating new business opportunities through a consultative sales approach
• Creating tailored sponsorship solutions aligned to client objectives
• Managing long-term sponsor relationships and driving repeat business
• Attending industry events and networking opportunities
• Working closely with internal teams to ensure sponsors achieve maximum value from their investment

What we're looking for

Someone who

✔ Has a proven background in sponsorship sales

✔ Can generate new business through multiple channels

✔ Is comfortable engaging senior stakeholders and decision-makers

✔ Takes a consultative, relationship-led approach to sales

✔ Understands how to develop and nurture long-term commercial partnerships

✔ Is commercially driven but focused on quality over volume

✔ Enjoys working autonomously while contributing to a collaborative team culture

Why this role stands out

• £50,000 basic salary
• Uncapped commission with monthly payments
• Minimum £70k OTE in Year 1
• Realistic six-figure earnings from Year 2 onwards
• Strong existing client base and sponsorship proposition
• Highly differentiated one-to-one meetings model
• Consistent business growth and investment
• Excellent employee retention and career progression opportunities
• Hybrid working with regular exposure to clients and industry events

If you're looking for a sponsorship sales role where relationship building, strategic business development and long-term partnerships are valued more than pure activity metrics, we'd love to hear from you.
