native has been building for 10 years, but we're still very much a startup: fast-moving, ambitious, and building with intent. We're creating the infrastructure that connects students, Students’ Unions, universities, and advertisers through a managed marketplace.
Our goal is to deliver for students by increasing student engagement while enabling Students’ Unions to secure sustainable funding. For advertisers, we offer meaningful, measurable routes to student audiences. The more aligned these incentives are, the more defensible and scalable our business becomes.
The Opportunity
We're hiring a Sales Executive to join our growing sales team. You will play a pivotal role in connecting local and regional advertisers with student fairs by identifying and engaging potential clients. We’ve run similar fairs for many years with great success, and are now looking to expand our offering across the full academic year. This is a demanding yet rewarding role, offering clear goals and opportunities for professional growth and commercial success!
What you’ll be working on
As a Sales Executive, you’ll be responsible for the full 360 sales cycle, working closely with our outbound sales team to close new business leads.
Managing Qualified Opportunities: Take ownership of qualified leads passed over by our SDR team, guiding prospects through the sales process from initial discovery to close.
Discovery & Consultative Selling: Conduct engaging discovery calls to understand each customer’s needs, tailor your approach, and demonstrate how our solution can deliver value.
Presenting & Closing: Deliver compelling sales conversations, overcome objections with confidence, negotiate where appropriate, and successfully convert opportunities into customers.
Pipeline Management: Maintain an organised and healthy sales pipeline, ensuring every opportunity is progressed efficiently and no potential customer is left behind.
Target Achievement: Meet or exceed individual and team KPIs, including revenue, conversion rates, and sales activity targets.
CRM & Sales Administration: Keep accurate records of customer interactions, opportunities, and next steps within our CRM to ensure excellent pipeline visibility and forecasting.
Team Collaboration: Work closely with the SDR team, Team Lead, and wider commercial team to share feedback, improve conversion rates, and continuously refine the customer journey.
