Head of Sales & Commercial

I am partnering with a key client on a retained assignment as they look to strengthen their Sales and Commercial teams.

As Head of Sales & Commercial you will take ownership of revenue growth, lead a high-performing Sales and Marketing team, and embed AI-driven sales strategies that deliver real commercial results.

This is a senior leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, target-driven environment and knows how to turn strategy into measurable performance.

Key Responsibilities;

• End-to-end sales and commercial strategy

• Revenue growth, pipeline performance, and forecasting

• AI-powered lead generation, automation, and sales enablement

• High-performing sales and account management teams

• Strategic partnerships and new market opportunities

• Data-led decision making across the commercial function

Experience needed;

• Proven track record in senior sales/commercial leadership roles with some experience of leading a marketing function too, ideally from SAAS, Professional services, membership or B2B sectors.

• Strong experience delivering revenue growth and hitting ambitious targets

• Expertise in CRM platforms (ideally Salesforce) and sales tech stacks

• Hands-on experience with AI-driven lead generation and automation tools

• Exceptional leadership, coaching, and team-building capability

• Commercial acumen with a sharp, analytical mindset

• Confidence in negotiations, stakeholder management, and strategic planning

If you’re commercially driven and like to lead from the front then this is a really great opportunity to make a real impact in a leading organisation.

The right person needs to be able to get to their Lancashire offices 2 days a week and also travel to other parts of the business in their duties.
