Job summary

Lucky Strike Entertainment in Houston is seeking a Senior Event Sales Specialist to manage the full sales cycle for groups and large corporate events, building relationships with local companies and community groups. You will navigate multi-stakeholder deals, tailor experiences, and drive high-value accounts while meeting quarterly quotas.

You will lead BEO meetings, coordinate with venue ops, and focus on retention to grow repeat business.

Qualifications

Proven background in group or event sales, hospitality, or related field.
Track record of managing a high-value pipeline and closing deals with multiple decision-makers.
Confident prospector who builds relationships naturally and follows through consistently.
Strong communicator and presenter — tailor your pitch to a room of one or a committee of ten.
Detail-oriented and organized—large events have many moving parts and reflect on you.
Feedback-driven and coachable—treat every debrief as an improvement opportunity.
Comfortable with Outlook, Microsoft Teams, Excel, and GEMS.
Adaptable — a 20-person birthday dinner and a 150-person corporate buyout require very different conversations.

Responsibilities

Own the full sales cycle for groups of 13+ — from social events to large corporate buyouts and 100+ guest events.
Navigate multi-stakeholder decision-making, longer timelines, and higher-complexity contracts.
Match every client to the right venue, package, and custom experience for their group size and goals.
Own all local business outreach in your territory — build relationships with companies, organizations, and community groups.
Develop and expand a portfolio of high-value accounts through prospecting and relationship management.
Work toward a quarterly quota, paid monthly on a tiered basis with commissions.
Lead BEO meetings for events and coordinate with venue ops for flawless execution.
Own retention outreach across your accounts and drive repeat business.
