Open role
Relationship Firestarter
New Business Development Executive
You start the reaction with new clients. You find the right people at the right brands, pick up the phone and get them talking to us.
Firestarter
The role
We make the work. You open the doors. Your job is to get decision-makers at global tech and gaming brands into a meeting with our Founder. You join that first meeting and make the intro. The Founder takes it from there, and you open the next door.
You won’t inherit accounts. You build your own pipeline and run it your way, with our team behind you. You report to the Founder and Managing Director.
What you’ll do
- Find them. Track down the people who run events and brand experience. Our AI tools help you spot who’s planning what.
- Pick up the phone. Phone first, then email, LinkedIn and the show floor. Keep following up until there’s a date in the diary.
- Land the meeting. Book decision-makers into calls with our Founder. Join the call, make the intro, take the notes.
- Keep it warm. Big brands brief on their own clock. Stay close to every “not yet” until it becomes “now”.
- Log everything. Every call, note and next step goes in the CRM.
- Work the shows. Fill the diary around big events like Gamescom, CES and Mobile World Congress. Sometimes you’ll be on the floor too.
Where it leads
You’ll have clear targets and coaching to hit them. Beat them consistently and you can take on more, like delivering our credentials and winning briefs yourself. Only if you want it, though. Opening doors is a career too.
Who you are
- You love the chase. A new door excites you more than an old one, and a “no” doesn’t slow you down.
- You’re at home on the phone. You’d rather pick it up than hide behind an inbox.
- You keep your word. You do what you say, when you say you will.
- You run your own race. We set the goal. You work out how to hit it.
- You think ahead. You see AI as an edge, and you’re always looking for a better way.
- You’re into our world. You follow tech, gaming and live events because you want to.
- You want to grow with us. You’re here to build something, not pass through.
Experience: some sales, anywhere you’ve worked to a target. Phones, retail, events, recruitment: attitude counts for more than the sector.
Bonus: you’ve sold into US brands before.
How we work
Four working laws run through everything we do. Here is what they mean in this role.
- Make haste slowly. Full urgency on the phone. No rushing the relationship.
- Dissolve and rebuild. Pull your pitch apart without ego, then build it back sharper.
- Work and reflect. Make the calls, then take an honest look at what worked.
- All is one. Nothing is wasted. Today’s “not yet” is next quarter’s brief.
The honest part. We make the client the one who made it. You light the relationship, then hand it on. If you need your name on every win, this isn’t the place. If you love being the reason it started, it is.
What you get
- £30,000 base + OTE. Commission on top, so the more doors you open, the more you earn.
- The big shows. The chance to work events like Gamescom in Cologne and CES in Las Vegas.
- A growth path. Beat your targets consistently, then move into credentials and briefs.
- 28 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays, and your birthday off.
- Private healthcare once you pass probation.
- Home kit: laptop, webcam and mic. Our AI tools, included.
- Monthly team days, in person, with coaching direct from our team.

Remote, UK. Ideally you’re in the South or Midlands, so monthly team days near Reading are an easy trip, and some calls run later to catch US time zones. Send your CV and a short note: why you, and the best “yes” you’ve ever won.
Thank you. Your application is in, and we read every one. We will be in touch if it is a fit.
