B2B Sales Manager - Luxury Hospitality /Corporate Partnerships in London

Location: London (Hybrid – 2 days in the office)

We are partnering with a premium consumer brand that is entering an exciting new phase of growth and are investing heavily into its B2B growth strategy. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to build and lead a high-growth commercial channel, working with some of the UK's best-known luxury hotels, hospitality groups and premium corporate clients. The business already has an incredibly strong consumer brand. Now they're looking for someone to help accelerate their presence across hospitality and corporate gifting.

You'll be joining at a pivotal point in the company's growth, with the opportunity to build a new commercial channel, influence strategy and work with a highly respected premium brand.

Around 70% of your time will focus on developing new business across luxury hotels, hotel groups, spas, wellness destinations and premium hospitality operators. The remaining 30% will be centred around building long-term corporate gifting partnerships with premium brands and businesses. This is a hands-on commercial role where you'll own the full sales cycle - from identifying opportunities and opening doors, through to pitching, negotiating, launching and growing strategic accounts. It's an opportunity to shape the strategy, influence the direction of the channel and play a key role in the next stage of the company's growth.
