Senior Sales Executive – B2B Media Advertising
📍 London (Hybrid)
💷 £30,000–£34,000 + uncapped commission
💼 Full-time
Are you a driven salesperson who enjoys winning new business as much as growing the accounts you bring on board?
We're working with an established UK publishing business that's looking for a Senior Sales Executive to drive advertising revenue across its print, digital and events portfolio.
This is a varied role combining new business development with account growth. You'll build your own pipeline of prospective advertisers, close deals, and then look after those clients to ensure they see real value and keep coming back.
It's particularly well suited to someone who enjoys the full sales cycle — from prospecting to close to long-term account care — rather than someone who only wants to hunt or only wants to farm.
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.
