Hotel Sales Manager

Job description

Additional Information: This hotel is owned and operated by an independent franchisee, Aimbridge Hospitality. The franchisee is a separate company and a separate employer from Marriott International, Inc.  The franchisee solely controls all aspects of the hotel’s employment policies and practices, including hiring, firing, discipline, staffing, compensation, benefits, and all other terms and conditions of employment.  If you accept a position at this hotel, you will be employed by a franchisee and not by Marriott International, Inc.

You develop and execute proactive sales strategies, build solid relationships, and seize commercial opportunities.
You track market trends, identify new clients, and organize memorable tours and presentations.
You align with the operational team to deliver on your promises and ensure a consistent guest experience.
You also collaborate with colleagues from other Marriott hotels in Ghent and across the cluster.
Lastly, you regularly report your results and insights to management.

You hold a bachelor's or master's degree in business administration, economics, tourism, hotel management, or a related field.
You have several years of experience in sales, preferably in the hospitality sector.
You speak fluent Dutch and good English. An additional language like French, German, or Spanish is a plus.
You are comfortable with digital tools and systems that support sales processes such as CRM software, property management systems (PMS), reporting tools, and online communication platforms. You easily switch between email, video calls, social media, and other digital channels to engage with clients and maintain relationships.

At Residence Inn by Marriott, you’ll work in a warm and professional environment within an international network. We invest in your development and ensure a positive work experience.

Here’s what you’ll receive:
A long-term commitment through a permanent contract
An attractive salary package
Extensive DKV hospitalization insurance
Meal vouchers and eco vouchers
Full reimbursement of public transport costs
Modern tools and equipment: a laptop and smartphone
A flexible working arrangement: we support a healthy work-life balance and adapt to each other’s needs. A non-traditional 9-to-5 schedule has its benefits – pick up your kids from school, attend that Tuesday workout class, or enjoy your free time while others work
Ongoing top-level training opportunities, including those from Marriott International – because learning never stops
You'll be part of both a small and a large family: the Residence Inn family and the broader Marriott family – with numerous growth opportunities
Exclusive hotel deals with staff discounts of up to 50%

This company is an equal opportunity employer.
