Reach for the stars with us. Limehome is building something rare in hospitality: a tech-enabled operator that treats revenue not as a spreadsheet exercise, but as a full-contact commercial sport. As we scale our portfolio toward 12,000+ units, we’re looking for a Senior Business Development Manager to build and drive the commercial engine of a dedicated cluster of properties. This is a builder’s role: you’ll own a real P&L, spin up commercial projects from scratch — new B2B channels, GOPPAR optimization plays, OTA and SEM frameworks — and scale what works. The automated tech stack does the daily heavy lifting; you make the calls and build the playbook the rest of the portfolio will run on. If you want to run a cluster like it’s your own — with the autonomy to test bold ideas and the data to prove they worked — read on.
How you’ll be hosting with heart
Build & Scale Commercial Levers
- Develop new commercial levers from zero to impact: GOPPAR optimization plays, personalized incentives, loyalty mechanics — test them on your cluster, measure hard, and scale what works across the portfolio
- Build OTA product frameworks: crack where Preferred Partner, sponsored listings, visibility boosters and campaigns actually pay off — and turn it into a repeatable playbook
- Run Ads experiments via sponsored listings: measure CAC against OTA commissions and steer spend to protect GOPPAR
- Drive Local B2B Growth: Spin up local B2B as a demand-generation engine: identify, pitch and close the accounts that fill your cluster — corporates, hospitals, universities, contractors, event organizers
- Build a non-OTA channel of direct stays you can activate whenever demand pacing needs a push; warm leads from the central B2B team are your head start, the pipeline and the results are yours
- Own a Commercial Cluster to Test & Validate: Own commercial performance (RevPAR, GOPPAR) for a cluster of ~10 Limehome properties — your numbers, your calls and your playing field to solidify your ideas
- Treat every lever — rate, channel, demand, cost — as something you can pull to move the bottom line
- Cross-Functional Influence & Project Development Develop, pilot and roll out new local growth initiatives end-to-end (e.g. personalized incentives, loyalty mechanics, local partnerships) – from idea to execution, without a ready-made playbook
- Loop in central Channel Managers when your cluster needs a visibility push – OTA ads, content, campaigns
- Quantify the commercial cost of ops, content or review-score issues and chase the right team to fix them — backed by numbers, not opinions
- Flag the commercial impact of operational issues (e.g. a maintenance issue hurting your Booking.com score) so Ops can prioritize accordingly
Requirements & Experience
- 4+ years in business development, commercial or revenue-driving roles: you’ve built and driven commercial initiatives, ideally in hospitality, serviced apartments, short-term rentals or travel-tech — though a strong commercial track record matters more than the sector
- A builder’s mindset: you love taking an idea — a new sales channel, an SEM test, a pricing play — from zero to a measurable result, and you don’t wait to be told how
- Commercially numerate: fluent with pricing, pacing and performance data; you measure everything and steer on evidence, not gut feel
- Comfortable closing: when a project calls for outbound sales, you’ll pick up the phone and pitch — winning new business energizes you
- Strong cross-functional operator: confident influencing without authority across Operations, Marketing and Distribution
- Based in Munich or Berlin: this is a hybrid role out of our Munich HQ or Berlin office Business fluency and English, German is a plus Nice to have (a real plus): H… Senior Business Development Manager - Commercial (m/f/d) — limehome, München.
