Commercial Partnerships Lead (Hospitality Background – Ready to Pivot)

Location: Delhi NCR / Mumbai (Our offices are in Noida Sector 132 and Mumbai BKC)

Full-time | Immediate Joiners Preferred

⚠️ Note Before You Apply

This is not a hospitality or hotel sales role.

We’re hiring polished, target-driven sales professionals from hospitality/event backgrounds who are ready to shift into a faster, more strategic selling environment. If you’re looking to stay in hotel sales, this isn’t the right fit.

About the Role

• You’ve sold high-value packages, handled demanding corporate clients, and know how to close a deal with finesse. But maybe you’re done with room nights and banquet halls.

• We’re building a lean, high-performance commercial team that works directly with top-tier clients and decision-makers in a space that values sharp thinking, not cookie-cutter pitches.

• If you’re ready to leave the hospitality script behind and take on something faster, sharper, and more direct — this is your pivot.

What You’ll Do

Your job is not to sell space. It’s to sell ideas and visibility outcomes. Here’s what you’ll do:

• Own and grow a book of business — from outreach to closure
• Identify and open conversations with key decision-makers (brands, institutions, etc.)
• Customize pitches using insights, not standard decks
• Work cross-functionally with strategy and ops to execute clean, high-impact campaigns
• Actively participate in internal reviews and pipeline discussions — you will be heard
• Think like an owner — not just a quota chaser
• Build and grow a portfolio of enterprise clients and partners
• Lead commercial conversations end-to-end — prospecting, pitching, closing
• Position solutions (not inventories) to solve real marketing or visibility needs
• Work directly with founders to design and deliver pitches
• Unlock new verticals using your service orientation and account instincts

Who You Are

• Hunger to break into a new industry — and thrive in a fast-paced, lean setup
• 2–6 years of client-facing sales experience in hospitality, luxury events, or premium services
• Fluent with B2B or corporate sales
• Strong communication — both verbal polish and written clarity
• Self-motivated with zero drama — gets things done without waiting for perfect instructions
• Hungry to move out of a fixed-system environment into something that rewards agility

What You Get

• A break from rigid hierarchies and slow cycles
• Fast-moving team, direct access to leadership, and sharp execution culture
• Industry switch with structured support — you’ll be trained
• Compensation with clear incentive triggers. Earn what you close.
• Opportunity to grow beyond traditional sales — into strategy, accounts, or sector-specific leadership
