Description

Join the iconic Mayfair Adelaide as we step into something new. Nestled in the heart of Adelaide’s vibrant CBD, the beloved Mayfair Hotel is entering an exciting new chapter—transforming into Kimpton Mayfair Adelaide in 2026. At Kimpton, we do things differently. We’re the original boutique lifestyle brand—known for delivering luxury with a wink: sophisticated, yes—but never stuffy. We create spaces that feel, experiences that connect, and moments that are personal, playful and a little unexpected. This is your opportunity to be part of a transformation where timeless elegance meets bold personality—bringing together the Mayfair’s distinctive character with Kimpton’s signature energy, creativity and human connection. We’re looking for a Director of Sales & Marketing who… …does more than drive revenue. You’re a storyteller, a connector, and a commercial leader who knows how to position a hotel as not just a place to stay—but a place people are drawn to, talk about, and come back to. You’ll shape how Kimpton Mayfair Adelaide shows up in market—building a brand that feels vibrant, locally loved, and unmistakably Kimpton. A little taste of your day-to-day Every day is different—but expect to: * Shape our story – defining a clear, differentiated position in the market that brings Kimpton’s personality to life while delivering strong commercial outcomes * Create connection – building meaningful relationships with clients, partners and the local community, positioning the hotel as a true social hub * Drive performance – developing and executing strategic sales and marketing plans that grow revenue, market share and brand preference * Bring the brand to life – leading campaigns, partnerships and experiences that reflect a design-led, locally inspired, and delightfully unexpected approach * Lead your team – building and inspiring a high-performing, creative team where individuality is encouraged and ideas are welcomed * Champion digital and content – ensuring every touchpoint, from social to distribution, reflects the brand’s voice and drives performance * Collaborate globally, act locally – working across IHG commercial teams while ensuring our voice stays distinctly Kimpton What we need from you We’re looking for someone who blends commercial sharpness with creativity and personality. You’ll bring: * Proven experience in a senior Sales & Marketing role within a luxury or lifestyle hotel * Strong commercial acumen, with the ability to translate strategy into measurable results * A natural ability to build relationships and create authentic connections * A passion for brand storytelling, guest experience and creating moments that feel personal and memorable * A leadership style that inspires, empowers and brings out the best in others * Confidence to think differently, take thoughtful risks and challenge the expected * The ability to embody the brand—bringing energy, individuality and authenticity to everything you do What you can expect from us This is more than a role—it’s a chance to help shape something special. * Be part of a once-in-a-generation brand transformation * Join a brand that is radically inclusive, authentic and passionate * Work in an environment that celebrates personality—where you can be 100% you * Access IHG’s global career pathways, development programs and benefits * Enjoy a competitive salary, hotel discounts and some of the best training in the business Our culture At Kimpton, we believe hospitality is, at its core, human. We don’t follow scripts—we follow instincts. We create experiences that are warm, intuitive and refreshingly unscripted, where guests (and colleagues) feel seen, welcomed and inspired. We’re proud to be part of IHG Hotels & Resorts, where we celebrate difference, value individuality, and create inclusive environments where everyone can bring their whole self to work. Sound like you? Even if you don’t meet every requirement, we’d love to hear from you. Come as you are—and help us create something truly special.
