The Progress Film Company – progressfilm.co.uk – is looking for a full-time Sales Rep to join our growing new business team.
Progress is a contemporary film studio established in 2010 by filmmakers Matt Hopkins and Ben Lankester. Today, Progress makes commercials, digital content, branded entertainment, animation and feature-length cinema under one roof, with a two-tiered management structure servicing both agency and direct-to-client needs worldwide. No matter the brief, we are Progress. Storytellers first.
The key part of this role will see you forging new, sales-driven relationships, both with advertising agencies and direct with companies and brands. You will be working alongside our existing sales team – both our directors’ rep and press & marketing department – to bring in new scripts for our growing number of rostered directors and in-house filmmakers.
When not at meetings in London and/or elsewhere, the successful candidate can work out of our thriving film studio in the heart of Brighton. However, we are flexible with our scheduling, and because we see this as a London-centric role, a Brighton-based candidate is not a necessity.
Successful applicants will ideally have a minimum of two years industry experience, either on production or agency side, but an existing network of contacts is the key attribute here, with the role being judged on the candidate’s ability to bring the company new business opportunities.
Salary: Basic salary and commission structure dependent on experience.
Starting: October 2017, or as soon as possible.
