About Us

At Business Show Media, we organise some of the world’s largest and most dynamic business exhibitions. With events in London, Las Vegas, Sydney, and Singapore, we bring together entrepreneurs, business owners, and thought leaders to drive innovation, growth, and opportunity.

As we continue to expand, we’re building a high-performing team of future leaders. If you’re ambitious, motivated, and ready to learn fast, we want to hear from you.


Your Fast-Track to Leadership

This isn’t just a sales role — it’s a career launchpad. You’ll start in sponsorship and exhibition sales, learning the commercial side of large-scale event delivery. From there, you’ll move quickly toward senior roles such as Event Manager, Commercial Lead, or Event Director — all based on performance, not time served.

Whether you're a graduate, recent college leaver, or changing careers, we’ll provide the training and mentorship to accelerate your development.


What You’ll Be Doing

As a Fast-Track Sales Executive, you’ll join our Bristol-based sales team and be responsible for driving revenue growth across our global events.

* Contacting key decision-makers via phone, email, and LinkedIn
* Building and managing your own sales pipeline
* Selling sponsorship and exhibition packages
* Working to exceed individual and team sales targets
* Learning event planning and delivery from the ground up
* Progressing into senior roles based on merit and results


Who We’re Looking For

We don’t require previous sales experience — just the right mindset and work ethic.

* Driven, ambitious, and eager to progress quickly
* Confident speaking with business leaders and decision-makers
* Resilient, target-focused, and comfortable with challenges
* A strong communicator and team player
* Based in or near Bristol and available to work from our office full-time


What You’ll Get

* Competitive base salary (£26,000 – £30,000)
* Uncapped commission with first-year OTE of £55,000 – £65,000
* Top performers earning £70,000 – £100,000+
* Fast-track career progression into Event Director and other senior roles
* Opportunities for international travel to our global event locations
* A dynamic, collaborative office culture
* Regular bonuses, team incentives, and company events
* Full training, mentorship, and ongoing professional development
