THE OPPORTUNITY
We're looking for an ambitious Sales Executive to join our growing UK & EMEA sales team.
You'll be working with event agencies, organisers, venues, global brands and corporate clients to understand what they're trying to deliver and help build the technology solution behind it.
One day you could be supporting a large international conference in London, the next discussing event technology for an festival in Germany or helping a client plan the technology behind a global event programme.
You'll manage your own client relationships, develop new business, respond to inbound opportunities and work alongside our operational teams to turn ideas into successful live events.
It's a fast-moving, target-driven role, but one where you'll get to see the projects you sell come to life.
ABOUT ONE WORLD RENTAL
One World Rental powers events around the world.
From international conferences and exhibitions to major sporting events, brand activations and live experiences, we provide the technology and people that help make events happen.
Operating across Europe, North America, the Middle East, Asia and Australia, our teams support thousands of events every year with everything from event registration and connectivity to laptops, tablets, printing, AV technology and on-site technical teams. Our clients include some of the world's most recognised brands and organisations, including Apple, the United Nations, Formula 1 and Disney.
If you love the pace, energy and variety of the events industry – and want a commercial role where no two projects are quite the same, this could be the opportunity for you.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Build lasting client relationships – become a trusted partner to event organisers, agencies and corporate clients across the UK and EMEA.
- Win new business – identify and approach new clients through proactive outreach, networking, referrals and industry relationships.
- Turn enquiries into events – manage inbound opportunities and help clients build the right technology solution for their event.
- Own the full sales journey – from the first conversation and proposal through to negotiation, closing and handover to our delivery teams.
- Grow your accounts – spot opportunities to introduce additional services across event technology, registration, connectivity, AV and staffing.
- Hit and exceed your targets – take ownership of your pipeline, revenue goals and commercial performance.
- Work alongside our event teams – collaborate with operations, logistics and technical specialists to ensure what you've sold is delivered successfully.
- Stay connected to the industry – understand what's happening across events, venues, agencies and event technology and use that knowledge to create new opportunities.
- Keep your pipeline organised – maintain accurate opportunities, forecasts and client information within our CRM.
