Sales Manager

{ “@context”: “http://schema.org”, “@type”: “JobPosting”, “title”: “Sales Manager”, “description”: “

Houstwe makes hosting hassle-free. From Edinburgh to Auckland, we're transforming the short-term rental space through smart tech, strong partnerships, and a relentless focus on host happiness. Since 2015, we've helped thousands of property owners unlock new income, and we're only getting started.

We are looking for a Sales Manager to lead both our Host Sales and Partnership Sales teams. These were previously separate teams, but we’re bringing them together under one clear, energetic leader. This is a hands-on role for someone who can close deals themselves, manage a team across two functions, and keep the pipeline moving on both fronts.

Responsibilities

  • Manage and coach two small teams: Host Sales and Partnership Sales
  • Own and deliver personal and team sales targets across both functions
  • Drive acquisition of new hosts and new franchise-style partners
  • Develop and implement inbound and outbound sales strategies to increase volume
  • Build and manage partnerships and lead gen pipelines in the UK and globally
  • Support hiring, onboarding, training, and continuous team development
  • Analyse performance data and sales funnel to spot what's working (and what's not)
  • Ensure Close (CRM) is accurate and up to date at all times
  • Report key KPIs to the Global Head of Sales and the SLT
  • Represent Houst at industry events, exhibitions, and networking opportunities

Requirements

  • Proven success hitting targets as both an individual contributor and a team lead
  • Clear communicator who motivates others and leads by example
  • Strong understanding of the full sales lifecycle (and how to move deals along)
  • Highly organised, self-motivated, and comfortable juggling priorities
  • Experience using Close (or similar CRM) daily
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Able to work from our London office every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday

Benefits

  • Uncapped bonus potential – linked to performance of both teams
  • 25 days of paid holiday (+ your birthday off!)
  • Hybrid work setup with in-office days on Mon, Wed & Fri
  • Enhanced parental leave
