Sales & Marketing Manager

Location: Wembley (Hybrid working)
Contract: Full-time, temporary booking until August (with potential extension)
Rate: £33.00 per hour PAYE / £43.36 per hour Umbrella

About the Role

We’re seeking a proven commercial operator to join a dynamic local authority team in Wembley as a Sales & Marketing Manager. This is a hands-on role for someone with a strong track record of delivering and exceeding income targets through sales, business development and account management — not purely marketing activity.

You’ll be responsible for maximising income from a busy, bookable venue, balancing commercial return with reputation, partnerships and long-term value.

We’re Open on Background

We’re genuinely open-minded on sector background. You might come from:

• Hospitality or hotels
• Conference & events venues
• Venue sales or cultural spaces
• Film office / location services
• Sponsorship, advertising or partnership sales
• Commercial roles within a local authority

If you’re used to selling time, space or packages, managing a pipeline and converting leads into confirmed bookings, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead sales and income-generation activity across a busy bookable venue
• Design and deliver sales campaigns that convert and hit income targets
• Develop and manage relationships with senior partners, advertisers and sponsors
• Oversee account management and repeat business
• Contribute to film and location services income (experience here is highly desirable)
• Manage budgets and forecast income accurately
• Lead, motivate and manage staff effectively
• Use and manage the venue booking system (Priava – training provided)

What We’re Looking For

• A clear, demonstrable record of meeting or exceeding sales/income targets
• Strong commercial instincts and confidence working in fast-paced environments
• Comfortable managing high-value stakeholders at a senior level
• Experience running or supporting a high-volume, bookable space or service
• Strong people management and budget management skills
• Confident with CRM or venue management systems (Priava experience a bonus, not essential)

What’s on Offer

• Competitive hourly rate: £33 PAYE / £43.36 Umbrella
• Hybrid working arrangement
• Opportunity to work in a high-profile, commercial local authority environment
• Initial temporary booking until August with potential extension
