Our new resort will feature 907 guest rooms and 150,000 square feet of convention space, in a prime location on Interstate 95 and US 1.
We’re hiring a Senior Sales Manager with a strong background in hotel or convention center group sales. This isn’t an entry-level opportunity—it’s a high-impact role for a proven producer who thrives on building relationships with corporate, government, and third-party planners.

- Generate new group business through prospecting, networking, and site visits
- Work cross-functionally with Revenue Management and Convention Services
- Track sales activities and forecasts in Delphi or similar CRM

- 3-5 years of hotel, resort, or convention center group sales experience
- Demonstrated success working with meeting planners in corporate and government sectors
- Confidence in building new business pipelines and closing complex deals
- Strong presentation, negotiation, and follow-up skills
- Experience working in a high-volume, pre-opening or high-growth environment is a plus
We reward the producers. Always have, always will.
- Base salary range: $75,000 - $115,000 (commensurate with experience)
- Uncapped incentive plan based on performance, percentage to goal, and tenure
