I am an authentic, resilient Sales and Marketing leader with a passion for people. I am well-respected as a leader and mentor and known for developing high-performing teams. I love to empower individuals, create dynamic team cultures, identify talent, and develop careers. There is nothing more rewarding than working with a team that is engaged, performing, and wanting to work with you each day. Hotels are known for their dynamic work environments and challenging business trading periods. I thrive on these challenges and have learned to pivot, innovate and identify sales & marketing actions to lead business recovery not only through trading peaks and troughs but also through the 2008 GFC and most recently COVID 19. I have proven success in driving revenue through all aspects of sales & marketing including account management, business development, negotiation, partnerships, digital marketing and development of business strategies to maximise profitability. I am experienced in leading conference & events sales and management, managing high volume accounts including customers from finance, manufacturing and banking. I have driven hotel digital strategies that include social media, customer communication, event conceptualisation and marketing for leisure guests and food & beverage. I am experienced in stakeholder management and have been an active member of numerous tourism groups and business chambers.Key Competencies:Leadership of people and performanceChange DriverCollaboratorBuilding ConnectionsCommunicationCoach and MentorMarketingSales account management Business Development
