ABOUT US – Neel Semb

Neel Semb is a young, purpose-driven French brand, born from a strong belief:
Diversity is a strength, and sport is the universal stage to express it.

Our motto, “All skin colors form one world”, carries this message of unity and inclusion through symbolic products: lanyards, keychains, shoelaces, t-shirts, accessories, and more.

We want these items to be proudly worn at sports, cultural, charity, and corporate events, reinforcing values of inclusivity and togetherness.

THE ROLE

We are looking for a dynamic and committed freelance sales representative to drive Neel Semb’s growth in the UK.

Your responsibilities will include:
- Identifying, contacting, and securing potential partners (clubs, associations, event agencies, companies, local authorities, etc.)
- Selling our products in bulk for events and initiatives
- Managing the full client relationship from pitch to follow-up
- Negotiating collaborations, which may also include:

  • Allowing partners to use our slogan or message in their own campaigns under a paid licensing agreement (legal framework provided by Neel Semb)

You will act as a true brand ambassador, representing our values and mission across the UK.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

This role is for you if you are:

  • Persistent, driven, and able to open doors where others stop knocking
  • Confident, outgoing, and not afraid to think outside the box
  • Independent, but capable of building a strong, trustworthy relationship with the brand
  • Passionate about diversity, inclusion, sport, and positive impact

Experience in sales, sports, or events is a strong advantage — but if you are motivated, curious, and ready to commit, we want to hear from you.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • Attractive commission structure: 10% to 18% of sales revenue, depending on volume and type of deal
  • Performance-based bonuses and progressive tiers possible
  • Additional income streams may arise from specific collaborations with partners

A 2-month trial period will be in place to assess results, client management, and motivation. If successful, the collaboration can extend long-term with strong growth potential.

WHY JOIN US ?

  • Become part of a meaningful brand with real social impact
  • Join a small but ambitious entrepreneurial adventure
  • Enjoy full freedom of action and be directly rewarded for results
  • Contribute to a positive, unifying, and universal message

Sounds like you? Get in touch and let’s build something impactful together.
