Sales Executive, Weddings & Private Events

Sell the days people remember for the rest of their lives. Weddings and private events across the UK and worldwide, backed by our own AV production, print and scenic teams.

Our weddings and private events team creates weddings, milestone birthdays, religious celebrations and private parties across the UK and worldwide. Spectacular, personal, and built by our own people. This role sells it.

You are the first person our clients meet. You take the enquiry, lead the meeting or venue visit, uncover what they really want from the day, and turn it into a proposal they cannot wait to book. Then you see it through, handing over cleanly to production and standing on site for the big ones, watching what you sold come to life.

In the UK you will mainly be selling our three in house specialisms together. Overseas it is destination weddings and private events, for clients who want the same team and the same standard wherever in the world they celebrate.

Office based in Uxbridge, 8:30am to 5pm, with site work on event days. Salary is £28,000 to £35,000 depending on experience, plus commission on the bookings you win. Site work is paid on top.

• AV production:
  Lighting that transforms a room, sound that packs the dance floor, and video and staging that make every moment land.
• Print:
  Custom dance floors, statement backdrops, welcome signage and branded graphics, printed in house.
• Scenic:
  Sets, structures and styling builds that turn any venue into somewhere guests have never seen before.

• Own every wedding and private event enquiry: respond fast and drive each lead to a decision.
• Meet clients in the office, at venues and online, and sell our AV production, print and scenic with confidence and flair.
• Grow every booking: spot where a client who came in for one service would love the full package.
• Win destination weddings and private events abroad, working with production on logistics and costings.
• Build winning quotes and proposals with the production team, and keep them sharp as plans change.

• Be on site for the larger projects, making sure what you sold is exactly what the client gets.
