Volta Ventures runs live sales events and in-store retail campaigns for major telecoms brands across the West Midlands. We build our managers from the grassroots level.

Individuals looking to develop themselves into being great leaders and responsible for large growth and big responsibilities is what we are in search for.

• Learning the campaign from the ground up. Face-to-Face events and retail work for major telecoms brands
• Recruiting, onboarding and training new event and retail staff as you progress
• Coaching and developing team members on site, one-to-one and in groups
• Owning campaign targets and reporting on team and individual performance
• Taking on increasing responsibility for running events and retail locations

Hungry, Coachable & Ready?

We care far more about attitude than your degree subject. You'll do well here if you're:

• A natural leader: people already come to you when something needs organising
• Competitive: you want a target and you want to beat it, and you want your team to beat theirs
• Organised: you can run several things, and several people, at once
• A strong communicator: confident starting conversations and confident giving direction
• Ambitious about people, not just numbers: you want to develop others, not just perform yourself

Any degree background welcome. No previous management or work experience needed. Full training provided, starting on the ground and building toward leading a team.
