Are you a foodie? Do you enjoy live music? Experienced in selling exhibition space and sponsorship packages?

If so, this is genuinely a brilliant opportunity!

Our client runs the leading food and music festival in the UK and the need has arisen to hire a brilliant events sales person to join the team.

Think industry leading chefs, great food stalls, top DJ’s and music artists….

The Role

Reporting to the head of commercial partnerships, you will be responsible for selling exhibition space for the events to both previous and new business. In addition you will create bespoke sponsorship opportunities for brands to invest. You will also have latitude to come up with new revenue generating ideas and opportunities that will grow both the sales revenue and in conjunction with the marketing team, ticket revenue.

Quite simply this is a unique and rare opportunity to work on some of the best events in the world! You will be pushed hard and expected to grasp responsibility as soon as it comes your way and you will learn faster than you ever thought possible. You will work with some fabulous people, including your colleagues and a good smattering of celebrities.

If you have a great event idea you might have the opportunity to develop and launch it with them. Essentially there are no barriers. If you’re good and you want it, you can have it; sales executive to event director in 3 to 4 years isn’t unheard of.

Key Profile Requirements:

A strong background selling exhibition and/or sponsorship packages
Initiative - proactive and able to work independently
Self-sufficient, self-motivated, resilient, determined, assertive, good objection handler, capable of working under pressure to tight deadlines
Strong planning, organisation and time management skills
Assertive team player capable of dealing and working with strong personalities
Strong interpersonal skills, excellent communicator, authoritative and credible diplomat/ambassador
Resilient and determined; problem solver and decision-maker
New business generation
Strong at managing key accounts
An all-rounder, able to transfer seamlessly from major account handling one minute to cold calling smaller clients the next

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data science jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data science has spent the past decade being described as the sexiest job of the twenty-first century. By 2026, the reality is both more nuanced and more interesting than that label ever suggested. The discipline has matured, fragmented, deepened, and in some respects reinvented itself — and the jobs market has changed with it in ways that create genuine opportunity for those who understand what employers actually want, and genuine difficulty for those still operating on assumptions formed five years ago. The data science jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. The generalist data scientist — equally comfortable wrangling data, building models, and presenting insights to the board — is giving way to a more specialised landscape where employers know exactly what problem they are trying to solve and are looking for candidates with the specific depth to solve it. Machine learning engineering, causal inference, experimentation, AI product development, and domain-specific applied science have all emerged as distinct career tracks within what was previously a single, loosely defined profession. At the same time, the arrival of large language models and the broader AI capability wave has both threatened and created data science roles in equal measure. Some of the work that junior data scientists spent their early careers doing — data cleaning, exploratory analysis, basic model building — is being partially automated by AI tooling. But the demand for practitioners who can evaluate AI systems rigorously, apply statistical thinking to complex business problems, and build the data foundations on which AI depends has grown considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what data scientists are expected to build and know, and how to position a data science career that will remain valuable as the field continues to evolve around them. This article breaks down what the UK data science jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
