Director of Sales - The Welcombe Hotel
Ready to Sell Something Special?
If you know how to turn conversations into contracts, ideas into revenue, and relationships into repeat business — we want to hear from you.
The Welcombe Hotel is looking for a passionate and commercially savvy Director of Sales to help take our stunning hotel, spa, golf, weddings, and events business to the next level.
This isn’t a desk-bound role for someone who likes hiding behind spreadsheets (although we do love a good forecast). This is for someone who thrives on meeting people, spotting opportunities, closing deals, and making things happen.
And if selling a stunning historic venue sounds like your thing — then our beautiful Calendar House is the perfect venue for you to promote!
About Us
Set within beautiful grounds and packed with character, The Welcombe Hotel is more than just a hotel. We’re weddings that people never forget, conferences that impress, spa days that unwind, golf breaks that compete, and weekend stays that create memories.
Now we need someone brilliant to help tell that story!
The Role
As Director of Sales, you will be responsible for developing and delivering the hotel’s sales and business development strategy, driving revenue growth across corporate, leisure, meetings and events, weddings, golf, and spa markets.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will lead the sales function with energy and creativity, building strong client relationships, identifying new business opportunities, and ensuring the hotel remains competitive within the market.
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious hospitality sales professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and has a proven track record in hotel sales leadership.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll lead our sales strategy across the hotel and become the driving force behind growing revenue and building strong partnerships.
Your days could include:
- Winning new corporate business over coffee meetings and networking events
- Showcasing our stunning wedding and event spaces to future clients
- Working with the team to create exciting sales campaigns
- Building relationships with local businesses, agents, and organisers
- Leading and motivating the teams to smash targets
- Spotting trends, opportunities, and clever ways to grow revenue
- Collaborating with the General Manager and wider hotel team
- Representing The Welcombe Hotel out in the market with confidence and personality
