Sales Manager Jobs

A Sales Manager in the hospitality industry is responsible for promoting and selling the services of a hotel, resort, or other hospitality business. They are typically in charge of identifying potential clients, developing business strategies, and maintaining relationships with existing clients to ensure their satisfaction and repeat business. They may also be involved in setting sales goals, analyzing market trends, and training sales staff. They play a crucial role in driving revenue and ensuring the overall profitability of the business.

Important skills for this role include excellent communication, negotiation, and customer service abilities, as well as strong analytical and problem-solving skills. A thorough understanding of sales principles and customer relationship management is also essential. Sales Managers should hold a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Marketing, or a related field, and many employers prefer candidates with a Certified Hospitality Sales Professional (CHSP) accreditation. Prior to becoming a Sales Manager, a person may have roles such as Sales Representative, Sales Coordinator, or Business Development Officer in the hospitality or related industries.
