Jobbeschreibung

I am seeking an elite Director of Sales with a career built in luxury hotels only to lead our global consortia and MICE sales strategy.

You will represent one of the world’s most prestigious luxury brands on the road, travelling 60% of the time, and leverage your black book of contacts to secure high-value partnerships with top consortia, travel advisors, luxury corporate buyers, and international MICE decision-makers.

This is not a role for someone who needs time to settle. You must hit the ground running, bringing deep industry knowledge, an established network of luxury contacts, and a proven ability to close premium business from day one.

What You’ll Own

• Lead and expand sales relationships with global consortia (e.g., Virtuoso, Travel Leaders, Signature, etc.) and luxury travel advisors.
• Drive MICE business (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Events) from high-net-worth individuals, luxury brands, and multinational corporations.
• Represent the hotel at international luxury events, trade shows, and sales missions across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
• Maintain and grow a personal "black book" of contacts — the right people at the right companies, with the authority to book luxury accommodations.
• Close high-value contracts, negotiate premium rates, and align revenue targets with brand standards.
• Collaborate with the leadership team to align sales strategy with brand positioning, guest experience, and commercial goals.
• Act as the brand ambassador for the hotel — embodying luxury service, professionalism, and discretion.

Who You Are

• Your career has been built exclusively in luxury hotels (5-star, luxury brands, Michelin-level hospitality, or ultra-high-end properties).
• You have a proven track record in consortia and MICE sales within the luxury segment.
• You know who to contact — you possess a deep, trusted network of contacts at key consortia, luxury travel agencies, corporate buyers, and event organisers.
• You are ready to start immediately and can drive results without onboarding or ramp-up time.
• You are comfortable travelling 60% of the time and thrive in a fast-paced, international environment.
• You speak German at B2/C1 level — essential for closing deals, building trust, and navigating the DACH market.
• You are fluent in English; additional languages are highly valued.

What You Bring

• A luxury-first mindset — you understand the expectations, service standards, and commercial nuances of the ultra-high-end segment.
• A results-driven attitude with a history of hitting targets, growing revenue, and building long-term relationships.
• Professional polish, discretion, and the ability to represent a luxury brand with confidence and elegance.
• Strong negotiation skills, contract expertise, and the ability to close premium business.
