Sales and Marketing Manager

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join Splash Projects and expand our community impact around the world.

The company and role:

Splash Projects is an award-winning business which delivers leadership and team-building programmes for businesses and business schools through community projects, globally.

We have an impressive range of clients including Santander Consumer Finance UK, Deloitte, Qube Research & Technologies and BAE Systems. And we have worked with some of the world’s top business schools on their leadership and executive education programmes, including INSEAD, London Business School, Imperial Business School, ESSCA and IE Business School.

Our work can be likened to ‘DIY SOS’ in that we build infrastructure, predominantly out of timber, completely free of charge, for organisations in need, within a tight timeframe. Builds include playgrounds for disadvantaged children, sensory gardens and facilities for people with disabilities and communal seating areas to enhance social cohesion.

Unlike ‘DIY SOS’, the workforce delivering these projects isn’t local tradespeople but participants from sponsoring companies. The participants are taken out of their usual work comfort zones and challenged to deliver a project in an unfamiliar environment under the expert guidance of our project facilitators. While they learn about leadership, teamwork and the role of purpose in the business world, their work will leave a legacy for hundreds or thousands of people.

This win-win combination enables us to make a profound difference in the world, community by community, while helping businesses develop high performing teams. Over the last 20 years, 65,000 participants have taken part in projects across 34 different countries benefiting 500+ charities. We are really proud of our impact to date, but our ambition is to grow further, help more charities and reach over 100,000 participants within five years.

To deliver growth of this scale we need a brilliant Sales and Marketing Manager; someone who can help us start new conversations with new sponsoring businesses and business schools.

This is a new role for us, and we are looking for someone who can assist our Managing Director and Business Development Director.

Your focus will be generating connections with new customers. This will mean creating a communication strategy across our different media channels to target key clients around the world, to ensure they have heard of Splash, understand our product and services and are interested in receiving a proposal from us.

Our primary media channel is LinkedIn, so you’ll have some experience in using Sales Navigator and developing B2B marketing collateral for this platform and using CRM systems such as Hubspot or Zoho.

Our Values

We are a small team with a big ambition, so it is important that you fit in. These are the values we aim to live every day:

1. Togetherness

We support each other, checking in on everyone's welfare and safety and ensuring we collectively deliver the best for our clients.

2. Owning it

We do what we say we will. We don’t have sloppy shoulders but ‘own it’: own what needs to be done, initiate and take responsibility.

3. Practicing what we preach

The principles we teach are principles we follow. We expect everyone to be authentic, live our values and carefully consider how they work each day so they are effective with each other and always deliver a professional service to our clients and communities.

Our role in the world

We are passionate about making a difference to the world and we hope you are too. Our mission and vision explain why we exist and what we want to deliver.

Mission:

To be a catalyst for positive change by delivering exceptional leadership experiences which make an impact on society.

Vision:

Community outreach and volunteering becomes the business norm, with Splash business partners leading the way in social impact and outperforming their competitive set in business growth and team motivation.

Reporting and Remuneration

We are looking for someone who can grow and develop with us. They will report to the Managing Director, who has a sales and marketing background, and will work closely with colleagues in relationship management, business and project design, and operations.

The role is ideally full-time and based in Exmouth. We are open to discussing some flexible options around this.
