building systems and delivering financial results.
The successful candidate will take ownership of the B2C business, develop profitable directbooking channels and create a scalable sales operation supported by automation and AI.

responsibility for results.

response efficiency and customer conversion.
• Collaborate with the marketing and IT teams to improve website enquiries, landing
pages, digital sales funnels and CRM workflows.
• Turn AI-generated and digital enquiries into measurable sales opportunities.
• Identify automation opportunities that reduce repetitive work and improve productivity.
• Monitor lead sources, customer acquisition costs and digital marketing returns.
4. Commercial & Financial Performance
• Take responsibility for departmental sales targets, gross margins, collected net
contribution and profitability.
• Monitor quotation competitiveness, supplier rates, discounting and sales margins.
• Coordinate closely with existing reservations, contracting, finance and operations teams.
• Prepare sales forecasts, revenue targets and practical growth plans.
• Control departmental costs and demonstrate clear return on investment.
• Deliver weekly performance reports to the CEO covering enquiries, conversion,
confirmed bookings, sales pipeline and profitability.
5. Customer Experience & Luxury Sales
• Ensure professional, timely and personalized communication with direct customers.
• Develop excellent relationships with high-value guests and repeat customers.
• Manage escalated sales enquiries and important customer relationships.
• Maintain the highest standards of service, confidentiality and responsiveness.
