Graduate Events Sales Assistant – Entry Level

Are you a recent graduate ready to launch your career in sales and marketing?

Do you thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy connecting with people?

We’re a leading events-based sales and marketing company based in Manchester City Centre, working with top brands to deliver engaging face-to-face campaigns that get results. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for graduate-level Events Sales Assistants to join our team and grow with us.

This is an entry-level role, ideal for graduates looking to gain commercial experience, build transferable skills, and progress quickly in a dynamic industry. No prior experience is needed — we provide full training and ongoing support.

Why Choose us?

At our core, we’re more than just a sales and marketing company — we’re a team of driven individuals who believe in building people as much as brands. Here's what sets us apart:

We don’t believe in waiting years for promotions. With us, performance is recognised — not just tenure. We provide a clear development path from entry-level to leadership, with ongoing mentorship every step of the way.

No Experience? No Problem

Whether you're fresh out of university or changing careers, we invest heavily in training and coaching. You’ll learn real-world sales, communication, and business skills that you can use for life.

Work That’s Dynamic and Engaging

Say goodbye to desk jobs. Our work happens at live events, promotional spaces, and brand activations. Every day is different, and you’ll always be interacting with new people in exciting environments.

Team Culture That Supports You

We’re proud of our inclusive, high-energy culture where collaboration, growth, and fun are part of the job. Regular team events, recognition, and a supportive environment make us a place where people enjoy coming to work.

Travel & Experiences

Optional travel opportunities mean you can see more of the UK (and sometimes beyond) while building your career. We combine work with new experiences, making every project feel like an adventure.

The ideal candidate will be:

• A recent graduate or early-career professional eager to learn and grow
• A confident communicator who enjoys working with people
• Self-motivated with a positive attitude and strong work ethic
• Comfortable in customer-facing roles (any previous experience in retail, hospitality or events is a bonus)
• Open to feedback and focused on personal development

As a Graduate Events Sales Assistant, you’ll play a key role in representing our clients’ brands at live events, retail promotions, and pop-up campaigns across Manchester and surrounding areas. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include engaging with customers face-to-face, delivering product or service information, and creating a positive brand experience that drives interest and sales. You’ll also support event setup and logistics, contribute to meeting team sales targets, and provide valuable customer insights to help improve campaign performance. This is a hands-on, people-focused role where no two days are the same — perfect for someone who enjoys variety, teamwork, and learning on the go.

Location: Manchester City Centre

Start Date: Immediate start preferred (full-time role)
