Via is supporting a high-growth, market-leading business in their search for ambitious New Business Executives.

This is a brilliant opportunity for people with a genuine passion for sport, elite competition, and high-end sporting experiences to turn that interest into a high-earning career.

  • Speaking with senior corporate decision-makers
  • Following up inbound and warm leads
  • Learning how to pitch premium sporting experiences
  • Managing your own pipeline with support and coaching

  • Have a degree in sport, sports science, sports management or a related field
  • Have played sport competitively or have a strong sporting background
  • Are motivated by earning potential and progression
  • Are competitive, energetic, and resilient
  • Enjoy communication, persuasion, and working towards targets
  • Want a career where effort directly impacts income

If you have the mindset of an athlete or team player, you will likely thrive here.

Package

  • Year 1 OTE: £30,000 – £50,000
  • Year 2 OTE: £50,000 – £70,000
  • Uncapped commission
