Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
DIRECTOR OF SALES - CAMBRIDGE Reporting to the Senior Sales Director - UK and Ireland, this role will drive commercial performance and take full ownership of sales targets across assigned Locke & Cove properties in the Cambridge market, delivering exceptional revenue growth through strategic account management and targeted new business development. This role is based on property 5 days a week. THE STAGE IS SET The stage is set for something different. We don't run conventional hotels; we build places with character and intent. What began as a small UK aparthotel portfolio has grown into a European collection recognised for design and atmosphere - and we're now entering a new chapter. As we redefine the brand and evolve our identity, we're focused on creating spaces that feel compelling, contemporary, and truly distinctive. Locke leads with bold expression; Cove by Locke refines that same spirit into a quieter, more streamlined approach. Guests come to rest, work, or escape. Comfort is a given - great beds, hot showers, genuine service. But we aim to create moments that feel memorable and a little unexpected, bringing back the sense of mood hospitality often lost. This is our backdrop. We're on an exciting journey step on stage and play your part.
