JOB DESCRIPTION

Growth Lead

 

We’re working with a fast-growing, internationally connected creative business operating at the intersection of technology, innovation, and brand experience. As part of their continued expansion, they’re looking to bring in a commercially driven Growth Lead to play a key role in executing their global growth strategy.

 

This isn’t a strategy-setting role, the direction is already defined. Instead, this is about delivery. You’ll take ownership of building pipeline, driving outbound activity, and converting opportunities into signed work across priority sectors and target accounts.

 

The Role

This is a hands-on, revenue-generating position with clear ownership of the commercial cycle from first contact through to signed agreement. You’ll be responsible for identifying opportunities, engaging senior stakeholders, and leading deals through to completion.

 

  • Execute a defined global growth plan across key sectors and target accounts
  • Drive outbound activity and build a consistent, high-quality pipeline
  • Engage senior decision-makers across technology, AI, and innovation-led industries
  • Qualify opportunities with a strong focus on commercial viability and strategic fit
  • Lead proposals and pitch processes, coordinating internal teams where needed
  • Define scope, pricing, and commercial structures in collaboration with delivery and finance teams
  • Own contract negotiations, including NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, and procurement processes
  • Manage the full journey from verbal agreement through to signed contract and onboarding
  • Ensure a smooth transition into account and delivery teams post-sale
  • Maintain accurate pipeline tracking and forecasting via CRM systems
 

What They’re Looking For

This role suits someone who thrives in a true “hunter” position. You’re comfortable owning both the open and the close, and you understand that real revenue is only secured once contracts are signed.

 

  • 5–8 years in outbound sales, growth, or business development within an agency, consultancy, production, or tech-led environment
  • Strong track record of building pipeline and contributing directly to new business wins
  • Experience navigating consultative sales cycles and progressing deals end-to-end
  • Confidence handling commercial discussions, including pricing, scope, and margin
  • Exposure to contract negotiations and procurement processes
  • Familiarity with CRM systems (HubSpot or similar)
  • Ability to collaborate with delivery teams to ensure what’s sold is realistic and commercially sound
 

What’s On Offer

  • Fully remote working model
  • Competitive benefits package including healthcare and pension options
  • Profit share bonus scheme
  • Generous holiday allowance plus additional wellbeing and volunteering days
  • A high-growth environment with strong international exposure
