Account Manager
Location: Hammersmith, London
Job Type: Full time
Salary: £35k - £45k per annum, dependent on experience + uncapped commission
Join one of the UK’s leading hospitality agencies and take ownership of developing high value corporate relationships.
At DTB Sports Hospitality and Event Management, we sell some of the biggest events in the world. Think Wimbledon, Formula 1, the BRIT Awards and major concerts. As an Account Manager, you’ll be joining a fast paced, energetic team that connects businesses with unmissable live experiences.
As an Account Manager, you’ll be responsible for managing and growing an established portfolio of corporate clients, while continuing to develop new business opportunities.
We’re looking for an experienced salesperson who can hit the ground running. Ideally, you’ll bring an existing book of corporate business and established relationships that you can begin developing from day one, alongside the accounts and opportunities available through DTB.
We are a relationship driven business, so we are looking for someone who understands the importance of getting to know their clients, identifying opportunities and providing an excellent level of service. You’ll be expected to take ownership of your accounts, achieve agreed sales targets and build long-term relationships with senior decision-makers.
