Summary
We’re looking for a Regional Membership Manager to join the Made in Yorkshire (MIY) team and play a key role in our launch of Made in the North West.
This is a full-cycle B2B sales and account management role. You’ll be responsible for growing our membership base, onboarding new members, and ensuring they get long-term value from their membership. Working closely with manufacturing leaders - CEOs, MDs, and senior decision-makers - you’ll build trusted relationships and help companies raise their profile, connect with peers, and champion British industry.
If you’re a driven relationship-builder who thrives in a consultative sales environment, this role offers the chance to make a real impact in not only local industry but also the wider UK Manufacturing sector, while developing your career.
Responsibilities
* Grow membership: Prospect, pitch, and convert manufacturing companies into members across Yorkshire and the North West.
* Consultative meetings: Meet with business leaders in person and online, listening to their needs and showing how we add value.
* Close & onboard: Manage the sales cycle efficiently, then ensure new members activate their profile and start engaging.
* Drive engagement: Encourage members to share updates, join events, and maximise their ROI from membership.
* Represent the network: Host and attend regional events, factory tours, and networking sessions.
* Generate referrals: Turn satisfied members into advocates who introduce new companies.
* Collaborate: Work with marketing, events, and customer success to deliver a seamless experience.
* Manage pipeline & data: Keep CRM records accurate for clear reporting and forecasting.
Qualifications & Skills
* Proven B2B sales or account management experience, ideally with memberships, professional services, or intangibles.
* A natural relationship-builder, confident engaging with senior leaders.
* Self-starter with commercial drive, resilience, and initiative.
* Skilled in a consultative sales approach, guiding rather than pushing.
* Strong communication and presentation skills, both in-person and online.
* Organised and data-driven, comfortable managing a busy pipeline.
* Tech-savvy and adaptable, able to use CRM, outreach tools, and AI-driven support.
* A collaborative team player with a positive, can-do attitude.
