Technical Event Sales Executive
Fixed term contract – 4 months

The Royal Agricultural Society of England owns and operates Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire, one of the country’s leading event venues. The business strategy has a particular emphasis on growth in agricultural and rural events where the Society stages its own market leading events and hosts events for a range of clients.

The role of the Sales Executive is to deliver the stand sales campaign, selling exhibition packages via telesales for a range of Society events. The role will include cold calling and client management face to face at the event. Event products include B2B events and B2C.

The successful candidate will be highly motivated and an enthusiastic sales professional. You must be experienced and able to demonstrate success in a previous role, ideally from the events industry. Excellent telesales skills and key account management will be expected. An exceptional level of customer care within a sales focused environment, attention to detail, communication skills and reporting abilities are vital. An understanding of agriculture and the countryside are preferred but not essential.
