CONFERENCE SALES MANAGER
Job Description
Our client is looking for a dynamic Conference Sponsorship Sales Manager to join their team.
About this position:
- This role is focused on driving sponsorship revenue across a portfolio of B2B conferences.
- You’ll be operating in a growing environment where not all events have an established track record.
- You will need to build pipeline, create opportunities, and close deals without relying on brand strength or inbound demand.
- Success in this role comes from creating momentum, not waiting for it.
What you will be doing:
- Driving new business through outbound prospecting
- Building and managing your own pipeline
- Owning the full sales cycle from initial outreach through to close
- Selling sponsorship solutions to senior stakeholders (including C-suite)
- Converting opportunities where clients may hesitate or delay commitment
- Working closely with internal teams to shape commercially viable sponsorship offerings
What they are looking for:
- 5+ years of B2B sales experience (conference sponsorship experience helpful but not essential)
- Proven track record in new business development
- Experience owning and managing full sales cycles
- Confidence engaging senior stakeholders
- Self-starter, comfortable operating in a lean environment
What will matter most:
- Ability to build pipeline from scratch
- Confidence selling concepts, not just established products
- Resilience in handling hesitation and longer sales cycles
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability
- Focus on closing and revenue, not just relationship building
If this role is of interest, send me a few bullet points covering:
- Why you are a strong fit for this role (be specific, not generic)
- One example where you built pipeline from zero —include how you did it and the revenue outcome
- One example where you sold something without a strong track record — how you positioned it and what happened
- A recent deal you closed — how you moved the client from hesitation to commitment
If interested, please send your CV to rwilliams@asiamediasearch.com ref# 302315 RW
All information collected will be handled in the strictest of confidence. HKEA# 79858
