Company Description

Dailymotion is hiring an Agency Sales Manager based in London to lead the day-to-day sales organisation and drive revenue performance across the UK and European market.

This is a mid-level, individual contributor sales role, ideal for a sales professional with good experience that would like to move into a progressive company with strong growth goals. This person knows how to work with agencies and brands, create urgency, improve forecast discipline, deepen agency and brand relationships, and turn strategy into revenue and is the type of person to go and hunt down opportunities.

  • Identify, prospect, negotiate, and bring to Dailymotion’s executives for approval and signature new partnerships with independent media agencies, trading desks, advertisers, and other relevant demand sources.
  • Drive the commercial development of the Indies patch by identifying opportunities across independent agency groups, specialist agencies, and emerging independent players.
  • Effectively manage sales activity across the portfolio, including pipeline development, account planning, client engagement, and revenue delivery.
  • Provide regular market analysis on the UK independent agency landscape, including key players, market trends, competitive dynamics, and opportunities in video advertising.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to develop tailored proposals, solutions, and go-to-market initiatives for independent agencies and their advertisers.
  • Report on and forecast monthly results, pipeline, and revenue performance, and perform such other duties as the Company may from time to time assign.
