VACANCY | Commercial Sales Executive

Aberdeen Football Club is a high-profile institution in the North-East of Scotland with an impressive heritage of domestic and international achievements since the Club was established in 1903.

We have a vacancy for a permanent Commercial Sales Executive to join the Club ahead of the 2022/23 season.

Our Commercial Department has been restructured in the past 18 months to better reflect the needs of the Club and its clients. Business development and generating new business is now seen as distinct from account management, customer service and fulfilment activity which is covered by a Key Account Manager for seasonal dining, advertising, events and sponsorship clients and a Partnership Manager for official sponsors and partners – a separation of the ‘hunting and farming’ activities.

This new Sales Executive role will be responsible for business development and sales within the specific areas of matchday hospitality, matchday sponsorship, matchday advertising and official club events to the local and regional market.

The right candidate will be highly motivated, organised and target driven. You will be able to demonstrate proven sales success and you’ll enjoy working in a fast paced and challenging environment.
