About the role:

You will support the generation of new business with enterprise-level clients, targeting marketing teams within large companies alongside advertising agencies.

• Market Analysis: Research and analyse market trends, competitor activity, emerging technology, and customer behaviour to refine sales strategies and better serve client needs.
• Wider Project involvement: While your focus will be on sales, as a small team, it is likely you will get involved in a range of other projects; there will be considerable opportunities to develop and pursue your interests and strengths in this regard.
