Activate Learning is one of the UK's leading education and skills groups, committed to transforming lives through learning. As we continue to expand our commercial activity and diversify income streams, we are looking for an ambitious and experienced Director of Sales to lead our next phase of growth.

Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer and working closely with the Executive Team, you will lead and develop our commercial sales function, driving growth across commercial projects, commercial training and other income-generating activities.

This is a strategic leadership role with responsibility for developing and delivering our commercial sales strategy, identifying new market opportunities and building long-term partnerships with employers, public sector organisations and industry bodies. You will play a key role in positioning Activate Learning as a market leader, creating new opportunities for growth and innovation.

Overseeing the Head of Commercial Product Innovation and Head of Commercial Finance, you will help shape and bring new commercial products and services to market, ensuring they are commercially viable, responsive to employer needs and capable of delivering sustainable growth.

You will also lead our sales and business engagement teams, creating a high-performance culture where accountability, collaboration and customer focus drive exceptional results. Through effective sales planning, forecasting and pipeline management, you will ensure ambitious income targets are achieved while supporting the organisation's wider strategic objectives.

You will bring an exceptional track record of commercial success, combined with the leadership skills required to inspire teams, build lasting relationships and create a culture of accountability and high performance. Most importantly, you will thrive in a fast-paced environment and be motivated by the opportunity to shape and grow a significant commercial function.

The ideal candidate will have:

Significant senior leadership experience within a commercial sales, business development or growth-focused environment.
A proven track record of delivering substantial revenue growth and achieving ambitious commercial targets.
Experience securing major contracts, developing strategic partnerships and identifying new market opportunities.
Strong commercial, financial and strategic acumen, with the ability to drive performance through effective planning and decision-making.
Exceptional leadership, communication and influencing skills, with the ability to inspire high-performing teams and build strong stakeholder relationships.

For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Peter Reynolds.
