The Opportunity

Are you a natural communicator looking for a professional entry point into the media industry?

Based in our offices near the historic town of Farnham, we are looking for an ambitious individual to join our commercial team. Unlike high-volume call centres, we focus on quality over quantity. We are looking for someone who enjoys building genuine business relationships and wants to represent a respected media brand.

The Role

This is a consultative sales position. You won't just be "selling space"; you will be helping local and national businesses reach their target audiences.

• Relationship Management: Engaging with business owners to understand their commercial goals.
• Creative Pitching: Presenting media solutions across our digital and print platforms.
• Market Research: Identifying new growth sectors and becoming an expert in your territory.

About You

We hire based on character and potential. This role is ideal for someone who is:

• Articulate & Polished: You can hold a professional conversation at a Director level.
• Resilient & Proactive: You have the drive to seek out new business and the persistence to see it through.
• People-Centric: You genuinely enjoy the "social" aspect of business and thrive on meeting new people.
• Local: Ideally, you live within an easy commute of Farnham and know the surrounding area.

The Rewards

• Financial: A stable £25k basic salary with a commission structure designed to be reached.
• Environment: A professional, supportive, and collaborative office culture (no "churn and burn" here).
• Progression: We are looking for someone to grow into a Senior Account Manager or Territory Manager role within 18-24 months.

Why this works better for Farnham:

• "Consultant" vs "Executive": In affluent Surrey, "Consultant" carries more weight and implies a professional career rather than a "job."
• Quality over Quantity: Farnham-based candidates often shy away from roles that sound like aggressive cold-calling. Emphasizing "Relationship Management" attracts a higher caliber of applicant.
• "Near Farnham": Since Farnham has tricky parking and a small town center, highlighting that you are "near" suggests a potentially easier commute/parking situation, which is a major selling point for locals. xwzovoh
• Career Path: The focus on "Senior Account Manager" progression appeals to the "commuter" demographic who might want to stop traveling to London but still wants a "proper" career.
