About the company

Live Expo is a fast-growing growth company that is growing by 20% per year. With a turnover of 63 million, a strong profit margin of 16%, and completely debt-free, the company is on a solid foundation for continued expansion. Live Expo is currently Sweden's largest organizer that does not own its own hall and is partially owned by Easyfairs – the world's tenth largest fair organizer.

The company organizes innovative fairs, meetings, conferences, events, and festivals where people and companies meet to do business, network, and be inspired. Dynamic meeting places are created here where news and innovations are presented for the first time – both from established companies and from exciting startups.

Live Expo has been founded by some of Sweden's most experienced entrepreneurs in fairs and events, who have launched over a hundred new fairs – many of them now leaders in their industries. With a packed agenda, they take the fair medium to a whole new level by inspiring, developing, and updating their visitors.

Job Responsibilities

As a salesperson at Live Expo, you have a central role in filling the exhibition floor with exhibitors, sponsors, and partners.

In this role, your work will be directly visible on the exhibition floor, and you will be involved in executing the fair together with your clients. You own the entire sales cycle, from prospecting and initial contact to negotiation, contracts, and follow-up. By building long-term relationships, both via phone and in personal meetings, you become a key player in the development of entirely new fair concepts. Your main tasks include:

• Prospecting and engaging new and existing customers in Norway

• Selling booth spaces, sponsorships, and ancillary services to exhibitors

• Building and developing long-term customer relationships

• Conducting meetings, presentations, and follow-ups

• Understanding of Norwegian in speech and writing

• Experience in media, sponsorship, events, or similar is a plus

You want to take your place! The key to your success is your drive to give your all and never give up. The step from thought to action is short, and you like to spread your positive energy like confetti. You believe that a team is stronger together. You are business-driven, competitive, and fearless, and with outgoing, attentive, and unpretentious qualities, you have an impressive ability to build relationships.
