MPLC are the legal way to show movies and TV in public or commercial spaces across the globe. Our business has been running for 30 years and we are the number one trusted partner to studios and producers for public performance licensing. We work with every major Hollywood studio and hundreds of independents, and we work hard to educate organizations about the importance of respecting copyright. MPLC is a key player in the entertainment and intellectual property ecosystem.

Our aim is to allow companies to use great movie and programming content while ensuring that content creators get paid fairly for their work.

We are on a truly exciting journey as a company. We're growing quickly, investing in our teams, and we have bold plans to make 2025 our best year ever. We're looking to hire a dynamic and driven Sales Executive for our Singles Sites sales team.

The job in two bullet points:

• Outbound calls to potential clients, educating them on the importance of our licence to push sales through.
• Hitting your targets and KPIs to ensure success in your role and support the team and wider business.

You'll love this role if...

We're looking for someone with brilliant communications skills who has a passion for connecting with people. This role is perfect for those who enjoy a challenge in a dynamic environment and having clear goals to work towards. We need you to have experience selling over the phone with a preferred background of business to business sales.

You will need to be focused, tenacious, and self-motivated as you strive to make outbound calls to leads and push sales through in order for you to hit your targets and KPIs.

You'll need to be detail oriented and ensure that your CRM pipeline is kept up to date in order for accurate reports to be taken from it and ensure clear visibility of your pipeline.

You'll be part of a close-knit team working towards the same goals as you, and you should be supportive of your team members, exchanging ideas and feedback to promote success in each other.

Let's be honest!

At MPLC we are passionate about what we do and every single role we hire for contributes to our growth as a business. We're not content with standing still, we constantly want to be bettering ourselves and doing things differently, and we want that from the people we hire as well.

Selling our licence is not always easy, and you'll need to meet resistance with a positive attitude and be motivated enough to pick the phone straight back up and move on to the next client after an unsuccessful call. We want you to be resilient and have the ability to turn setbacks and challenges into learning opportunities and ways to grow in the future.

We hope you'll be motivated, positive, and proactive in making suggestions about how you and your team could improve in the future.
