If you're someone who thrives on performance, loves building high‑energy teams, and knows how to turn pipeline into results – this is a role where you can genuinely make your mark.

You’ll take ownership of a small but high‑impact sales team, driving occupancy, revenue and conversion performance while shaping how the function evolves as the business grows.
This isn’t just about managing – it’s about leading from the front, setting standards, improving performance and building a culture of accountability and energy.
You’ll work closely with senior stakeholders across Sales, Marketing and Operations, giving you real visibility and influence across the wider business.

* Ensuring CRM discipline, data accuracy and structured processes
* Keeping customer experience at the heart of every interaction
What We’re Looking For
* Experience in a sales leadership, senior sales or supervisory role
* Strong track record of delivering against targets, revenue or occupancy goals
* Experience managing or mentoring a team (formally or informally)
* Strong understanding of sales pipelines, conversion and CRM systems
* Confident using data to drive decisions and improve performance
* Highly organised, proactive and comfortable owning results
* A natural leader who can motivate, influence and build energy within a team
* Resilient, driven and thrives in a fast‑paced, evolving environment

What’s In It For You
