Are you ready to lead change across multiple revenue streams and drive ambitious commercial growth? We're recruiting for a Head of Commercial - a newly created role that's part of our strategic push to grow and diversify income, uniting several well-established teams under one commercial strategy to achieve stronger, more sustainable revenues.
Reporting to the Executive Director of Commercial and Digital Innovation, you will take ownership of three distinct revenue streams: vocational training, advertising and sponsorship for the Environmental Health News publication, and customer service operations via the contact centre. Your remit will be to deliver year-on-year growth by strengthening sales processes, developing new products and services, and maximising opportunities across CIEH’s membership, events, and venue hire.
Customers range from large corporates and SMEs to public sector bodies, local authorities, and third sector organisations, with decision-makers typically at senior L&D, HR, or marketing director level. Success will mean building cross-team collaboration and turning identified market opportunities into profitable, brand-aligned income streams.
We are looking for a commercially astute leader who can act as both an agent of change and a supportive coach to a mature, experienced team. You will have a proven track record in sales transformation, income generation, and commercial strategy, ideally gained within a professional membership body or related environment. Experience in training, events, publishing, or venue sales will be a strong advantage, as will the ability to unite multiple functions behind shared goals. You’ll combine strong stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to embed best-practice sales approaches and deliver measurable results.
