Company Description

Dailymotion is hiring an Agency Sales Manager based in London to lead the day-to-day sales organisation and drive revenue performance across the UK and European market.

This is a mid-level, individual contributor sales role, ideal for a sales professional with good experience that would like to move into a progressive company with strong growth goals. This person knows how to work with agencies and brands, create urgency, improve forecast discipline, deepen agency and brand relationships, and turn strategy into revenue and is the type of person to go and hunt down opportunities.
