Urban Chic is a premium serviced apartment brand operating across London and Abu Dhabi. We provide high-quality, design-led accommodation for corporate clients, relocation companies, and agency partners β€” and we're growing fast across both markets.

We're looking for a commercially driven Head of Corporate Sales to take ownership of our direct corporate channel and agency partnerships across the UK and UAE.

The Role

  • Winning new direct corporate accounts β€” companies that need serviced accommodation for staff, contractors, and project teams β€” across both the London and Abu Dhabi portfolios.
  • Managing and developing our existing relationships with agency partners, relocation companies, and direct clients, ensuring continuity of revenue and a high standard of account management.
  • Introducing and activating new agency and booking platform partnerships to grow our indirect channel across both regions.
  • Building and maintaining a strong new-business pipeline, tracked and managed through our CRM.
  • Understanding the distinct seasonal and commercial dynamics of the UK and UAE markets and tailoring your approach accordingly.
  • Feeding market intelligence back into the business β€” competitor activity, client demand, sector trends, and channel performance.

You will report directly to the Managing Director. Working arrangements are flexible β€” office or home-based β€” with travel to clients, agencies, and both the London and Abu Dhabi offices as the role requires.

About You

  • Proven track record in a target-driven corporate sales role, ideally within serviced apartments, hotels, relocation, or a related sector.
  • Confident and credible when engaging senior decision-makers, procurement teams, HR directors, and mobility professionals.
  • Experienced in managing and growing agency and intermediary relationships, with the ability to identify and activate new partnerships.
  • Disciplined pipeline manager β€” structured, proactive, and comfortable working to clearly defined quarterly targets.
  • Self-motivated and able to operate independently, with the commercial instinct to prioritise effectively across multiple accounts and markets.
  • Familiarity with the London or UAE corporate accommodation market is a strong advantage; experience across both is ideal.

What We Offer

  • A competitive basic salary with a structured, target-driven commission scheme across multiple earning streams β€” including direct corporate commission, a new agency introductory override, and performance bonuses.
  • Uncapped earning potential β€” strong performance above target is directly rewarded.
  • Real commercial ownership of two growing markets with an established client and agency base to build from.
  • Flexible working arrangements β€” office or home-based, with the autonomy to manage your own time around client commitments.
  • The opportunity to shape and lead the corporate sales function within a growing, ambitious brand.

This is a role for someone who thrives on targets, takes pride in building genuine business relationships, and wants their results to directly drive their earnings.
