New Business Executive

About Us

Grandad Digital is a leading strategic digital creative agency specialising in Video Gaming, Arts and Culture. We deliver beautiful creative solutions that deliver strategic outcomes and we underpin this with robust technical delivery.

Your Challenge

Grandad Digital is a niche player in the verticals we operate and we deliver for some of the largest players within them.

Our new business model has changed drastically and we now need to place a greater focus on face-to-face contact and getting our name out to market. We need someone to join the team and partner closely with our Commercial Director to make a larger impact and make every interaction a success.

This is an entry-level role that will start with building active leads and targeting clients for the agency to reach out and engage with, with a view to booking meetings across the year and at the major conferences we attend.

You will also be involved in the setup and presence at our expo stands, getting to meet prospective clients and customers face to face.

If you are ready to take your first steps in a solutions sales career, this will be perfect for you and we have a roadmap to get you from here to somewhere quite exciting within a few years.

This role will involve both UK and international travel.
