• Monitor competitor activity and industry trends and adapt strategies accordingly

To be successful, you’ll have:

• Previous sales experience (ideally in the hospitality/leisure industry)
• Strong communication, negotiation and interpersonal skills
• Professional and confident in approach
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Proven ability to meet and exceed sales targets
• Highly motivated, goal-oriented, and able to work independently
• Full of fresh ideas to drive sales
