Job description

Sales Manager – Four Points by Sheraton, Edinburgh Haymarket

At Cycas Hospitality, we look for people who are dynamic, confident, and ambitious; people who excel in their role and help our guests — and our business — succeed too. Our focus is to put PEOPLE at the heart of everything we do. We believe in hiring the smile, training and developing talent, and creating genuine, caring teams who come to work to have fun and make a difference.

Four Points by Sheraton is a multinational hotel brand operated by Marriott International, targeting business travellers and small conventions. Our goal is to deliver a great hospitality experience worth coming back for again and again — providing comfort, consistency, and service that goes the extra mile to make every guest experience meaningful.

If you have the drive to achieve results, love building strong client relationships, and are passionate about creating memorable guest experiences while growing revenue, then read on — because you might be the perfect fit for our team.

YOUR CORE PURPOSE WILL BE:

• Develop and implement effective sales strategies to drive revenue across corporate, group, and leisure segments.
• Proactively identify, research, and secure new business opportunities for the hotel.
• Manage existing client relationships and ensure high levels of customer satisfaction and retention.
• Work closely with the General Manager and Marriott Sales teams to maximise market share and meet or exceed sales targets.
• Prepare regular reports on sales activity, performance, and market trends.
• Represent the hotel at networking events, exhibitions, and client meetings to promote the brand and build visibility.
• Ensure all sales activity aligns with the Cycas and Marriott brand standards and values.
• Collaborate with the operations and marketing teams to deliver seamless event execution and guest experiences.

WHAT YOU SHOULD BRING:

• Proven experience in a proactive sales role within the hospitality industry (hotel sales experience essential).
• Strong understanding of local market dynamics and corporate business development.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
• Results‑driven, with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
• Previous experience working with a Marriott brand or other internationally recognised hotel group is desirable.
• Knowledge of sales systems such as CI/TY or SalesForce is an advantage.

WHAT WE OFFER:

• A great team spirit — because at Cycas, it’s not over until we get a smile!
• Competitive salary and performance‑related bonus.
• Exclusive employee discounted rates at both Marriott and Cycas hotels (e.g. £70/night stays in the Maldives or £65/night in Paris!).
• Continuous paid training and career development opportunities.
• Free healthcare plan, paid for by Cycas (with options to upgrade).
• A supportive and inclusive work culture where your ideas and initiative are valued.

Cycas Hospitality is a gift for any hospitality professional. Over the past 14 years, we’ve built an innovative hotel management company and have been ranked among Caterer’s Top 30 Best Places to Work in Hospitality for four consecutive years.

This is your opportunity to shine and be part of something great. If you believe you have what it takes and want to join our team, we’d love to hear from you!
