3. Proven experience managing and developing teams, with the ability to inspire, guide, and support your direct reports while fostering a collaborative and high-performing environment.
4. Exceptional communication and people skills to build relationships with the wider hotel teams and external partners.
5. To be results-driven: combining creativity with results to deliver marketing campaigns that drive profitability and align with company goals.
6. High levels of self-motivation with a 'give it a go' attitude, able to adapt and recover quickly when faced with challenges, using exceptional influencing skills to get results.
7. A full, clean driving licence and access to a vehicle for travel as required to visit our beautiful hotels.
