About this role

HEAD OF SALES – ROOMS

Western Cape | Luxury Hospitality

We are looking for a hands-on, market-facing and commercially driven Head of Sales – Rooms to take ownership of growing accommodation revenue, with a strong focus on the leisure market.

This is a role for someone who is hungry for business, thrives on building relationships and is personally driven to generate new room-night production and revenue.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Strong, recent experience in leisure accommodation sales
  • Established relationships with tour operators, travel agents and leisure partners
  • Experience across both domestic and international leisure markets
  • A proven track record of generating room nights and accommodation revenue
  • A strong network that they can actively leverage and develop
  • A hands-on approach to sales – making calls, meeting clients, conducting presentations, developing new business and closing opportunities
  • Strong commercial understanding and the ability to convert opportunities into revenue
  • The ability to nurture and grow existing accounts while actively developing new business

This is not a Snr Sales Director role. We are looking for someone who is energetic, proactive, commercially astute and prepared to be out in the market, personally driving sales and creating opportunities.

If you are a natural business developer with a strong leisure network and a genuine passion for generating rooms revenue, we would like to hear from you.

Building careers, connecting people.
