Location: East Sussex
Job Description:

I’m looking for an Event Sales Executive to join the team at The Gallivant.

This role is all about converting opportunity into business. You’ll manage a significant pipeline of enquiries across corporate retreats, private celebrations, weddings, exclusive use and group bookings, guiding clients from first enquiry through to confirmation while delivering an exceptional experience throughout.

I’m looking for someone who enjoys winning business as much as building relationships. You’ll be commercially minded, highly organised and naturally curious, with the confidence to manage multiple enquiries while never losing sight of the personal detail that makes hospitality special. You’ll also be excited by technology and AI, using modern tools to work efficiently, respond quickly and continually improve the way you manage your pipeline, leaving more time to focus on building relationships and converting enquiries.

This role could suit someone already working in a quality-led hotel, members’ club or hospitality business, but I’m equally interested in people who have built successful careers selling premium products or services in other relationship-led sectors. If you’re commercially driven, enjoy winning business and take pride in delivering an exceptional client experience, I’d love to hear from you.

As we prepare to open our second hotel next year, there will be genuine opportunities to develop your career as the business evolves.

If this sounds like the sort of opportunity you’re looking for, please apply via LinkedIn and use the screening question to tell me a little about yourself.

Expected take home: £35,000 to £45,000, comprising basic pay and tronc, plus performance bonus, pension and other company benefits.
