Easol is the leading all-in-one ‘experience commerce’ platform built to power experience businesses including festivals, wellness retreats, food and drink, sports and adventure trips. With Easol, experience businesses have complete control to drive more direct sales, retain more revenue, own their data and run their business on their terms.
Easol has deep roots in experiences. The platform was founded by former festival founders, Lisa and Ben Simpson in 2017, after the husband and wife team endured challenges and frustrations first-hand while setting up and growing their own experience business including Rise, Europe’s biggest Snowsports and music festival, and Beyond Adventures, a series of adventure travel experiences in remote locations such as the Sahara desert and the Swedish archipelago.
The Role
As an Account Executive for Sports, you will play a vital role in our growth journey expanding into the mass participation sports category. Working very closely with our CEO, Ben, you will be building partnerships with exciting experience creators whilst demonstrating how Easol can supercharge their businesses.
We already have existing creators in the sports market, but your role will be fundamental in growing it at Easol. This will involve building partnerships for mass participation sports events such as running, cycling, multi-sport events and more.
You will be working on a mix of outbound and inbound leads. While you will be expected to generate your own leads, you will also have the support of our Sales Development team to assist you with product demonstrations and booking meetings with prospective customers. On top of that, we currently have and are continuing to build an exceptional marketing function that continuously delivers inbound leads to help you achieve success.
