Co-Founder & CEO @ SABDA | Building immersive wellness experiences | Brand, leadership & systems
SABDA is an immersive studio at the intersection of art, technology, and mindfulness, dedicated to empowering people through transformative experiences. Our space combines spatial sound, 360° projections, and curated programming – from wellness classes and listening sessions to art installations and brand experiences.
We’re now entering a new phase of growth and opening SABDA more intentionally to brands, production companies, and corporate teams.
Role Overview
We’re hiring a Sales Manager to own and grow all B2B revenue streams for SABDA:
Sponsorships with brands and partners
Venue rentals for events, shoots, and launches
Corporate wellness, team‑building, and learning programs
You will be the person who makes sure the space is booked, visible, and profitable—turning SABDA into a go‑to destination for brands and companies in Barcelona and beyond.
This is a strategic, hands‑on role for someone who loves both relationship‑driven sales and creative, experiential projects.
Key Responsibilities
1. Sponsorships & Partnerships
Design and refine SABDA’s sponsorship offering (tiers, benefits, pricing).
Identify and approach potential partners: wellness brands, tech companies, creative agencies, lifestyle and culture brands.
Lead the full sponsorship cycle: prospecting, meetings, proposal, negotiation, and closing.
Build long‑term partnerships that integrate into SABDA’s programming (series, annual partners, co‑branded experiences).
Position SABDA as a premium venue for:
Brand and product launches
Photo and video shoots, content production
Corporate offsites, team‑building, and leadership retreats
Own the full B2B rentals funnel: incoming requests + outbound outreach.
Create ready‑to‑sell corporate wellness/learning formats (e.g. 3‑hour immersive offsite, 1‑day retreat, 5‑week program) together with the founders and facilitators.
Host site visits, present the space, and close bookings.
Own client projects end to end, closing bookings and managing all production steps from initial meeting to final delivery.
Build and maintain a clean pipeline of sponsors, agencies, and companies.
Define clear KPIs: number of leads, meetings, proposals sent, conversion rates, total revenue, and occupancy rate of the space.
Report regularly to the founders with clear, honest data and next steps.
Test and refine offers and pricing based on client feedback and market response.
4. Collaboration & Internal Coordination
Work with the marketing team to align campaigns, case studies, and content with sponsorship and rentals goals.
Coordinate with operations and tech to ensure every booking runs smoothly: timings, technical needs, staffing, and hospitality.
Maintain and improve all client‑facing materials: decks, rate cards, standard proposals, and rental guidelines.
Represent SABDA at relevant events, meetups, and industry gatherings in Barcelona.
What We’re Looking For
You think like an owner: you care about revenue, costs, and long‑term brand value.
3–5+ years experience in one or more of the following:
Sponsorship / partnerships for cultural or creative projects
B2B sales for venues, events, or experiential marketing
Corporate wellness / learning / HR solutions
Proven track record closing deals and hitting targets.
Based in Barcelona and available to work in person several days per week.
Fluent in Spanish and English (Catalan is a strong plus).
Comfortable working in a start‑up environment where priorities can shift and you help build systems from scratch.
Highly organized and proactive; you don’t wait for leads, you create them.
Strong communicator and natural host—confident when giving tours, leading meetings, and presenting to senior stakeholders.
Experience using a CRM and working with simple revenue dashboards.
Bonus points if you have:
Existing network in Barcelona’s business / agency / creative ecosystem
Experience with corporate learning, HR, or leadership development programs
Background in museums, cultural spaces, or experiential agencies
Benefits
Competitive base salary aligned with experience.
Performance‑based variable compensation (commission or bonus) tied to sponsorship and rentals revenue, with clear, transparent KPIs.
Hybrid work: mix of on‑site days at SABDA and focused days from home.
Complimentary access to SABDA wellness classes, listening sessions, and selected events.
Opportunity to shape the commercial strategy of a unique immersive studio in Barcelona.
Work directly with the founding team in a collaborative, supportive environment.
Be at the center of launching new corporate offerings and partnerships in a space that lives at the edge of art, tech, and wellbeing.
