Founding Commercial Director – YOUNG.Sales
Sharp and Smart Recruitment · Valencia, Spain
You apply on the site where the job is posted. I never handle applications.
At YOUNG, we're not looking for a traditional Head of Sales.
We're looking for an entrepreneur. A commercial strategist. A builder.
Someone who sees opportunity everywhere.
Someone who understands that every empty hotel room, every vacant office, every unsold sponsorship, every unbooked podcast, every available workspace and every vacant property represents lost revenue.
We've built the engine.
Now we need someone to accelerate it.
