If you think that a Hotel Sales Manager job is ';a lot of fun'; I suggest you look elsewhere! With a recession on, the pressure to gain sales is ever-present with poor performers being fired left, right and centre.


To be a Hotel Sales Manager, you will need proven experience in Sales, and be good at communicating, thinking fast and coping with intense pressure from Management. You need to be good at motivating sales staff, reacting to competition from other businesses and be thick-skinned in order to take criticism and complaints.


Yes, you can earn a lot of money, but I personally dont know many people who take this career and live into their fifties!What does a hotel sales manager do?
Hotel Sales Managers are in charge of attracting groups i.e. tourism athletic teams and wedding partys to stay @ the hotel. also maybe in charege of boking Meeting rooms and board rooms. Basically the Salesman/woman of the hotel. I guess if your job was incentive laden you could make six figures
