The Role
We’re hiring a Sales Director to take ownership of a high-volume business portfolio—and grow it even further. This is not your typical "manage and coast" role. You’ll be on the front lines driving revenue and building a team beneath you.

This is a hybrid role based out of our London office at 3 Waterhouse Sq London EC1N 2SW, UK. You’ll be in-office 4 days per week and part of a team that’s shaping the future of commercial real estate media and events.

If it sounds challenging and you like the idea of getting knocked down so that you can get back up, great. So do we.
- Strong intellectual curiosity. We don’t believe we are perfect and we certainly don’t like to rest on our laurels when we do get things right. Our inside sales associates will need to meet with other firms to learn and expand their horizons and ultimately improve and further develop our processes to ensure continuous innovation.
- Problem-solving skills, specifically the ability to assess situations, evaluate options, make decisions, draw conclusions, and exercise judgment.
- You have a consistent track record of identifying customer needs and successfully implementing solutions.
- A natural relationship builder and hunter who loves closing deals.
