If youre a sales leader who wants more control, more impact, and a bigger voice in how a hotel performs, this is your opportunity to step into a role where you can genuinely shape the commercial direction.
This isnt about maintaining the status quo. Its about building momentum, unlocking new revenue, and leading from the front in a well-positioned 4-star country manor hotel with huge potential across corporate and M&E.
Why This Role is Different
Youll own the commercial strategy not just execute someone elses
A strong base of business already in place but plenty of untapped opportunity
The chance to make a visible, measurable impact quickly
A role where youre trusted to go out, win business, and make decisions
Ideal for a Senior Sales Manager ready to step up or a DOS wanting more autonomy
What Youll Be Responsible For
Driving new business across corporate, meetings & events and group segments
Building and growing high-value local and national accounts
Creating energy and focus around proactive sales activity
Identifying and converting new opportunities across the North West
Working closely with the GM to shape pricing, positioning and commercial strategy
Leading from the front out in the market, not behind a desk
What Were Looking For
Background in hotel sales (4-star or similar environment)
A track record of personally winning and growing business
Commercially sharp, confident influencing strategy and performance
A hands-on, proactive approach you enjoy being out meeting clients
Someone who wants ownership, not just responsibility
The Opportunity
This is a role for someone who wants to leave their mark to take a well-established property and push it further, faster, and smarter .
You wont be lost in a large corporate structure. Youll be seen, heard, and rewarded for results .
