AND Digital, a 1,000–5,000-person IT consulting and services firm, is hiring a Client Partnerships Executive (titled Sales Director) to own enterprise new business in the Manchester region. Role requires closing £3–6m annual revenue clients from FTSE 100/200, with accountability for team targets; fully full-time, hybrid, no fractional signal.

01

Full-time Head of Sales — the balanced verdict

Why this role stands out

  • Direct employer, consultancy with established culture and 12-year track record
  • Clear revenue targets and deal size (£3–6m clients) signal serious, scalable opportunity
  • C-suite credibility requirement with CIO/CDO/CTO personas; enterprise business development focus
  • Strong benefits package — 25 days holiday, healthcare, pension, life assurance, parental leave

Worth checking before you apply

  • Title 'Client Partnerships Exec' conflicts with 'Sales Director' — scope and seniority level unclear; verify reporting line and team structure
  • Role describes team accountability but unclear if this is first hire, scaling existing team, or peer role; past track record of FTSE wins is prerequisite, not nice-to-have
  • No salary range stated; day rate not applicable to full-time roles, but candidates should seek explicit comp before committing
