About Us:

Hotal is at the forefront of innovation in the hospitality and tech industry, dedicated to transforming how businesses engage with technology through our flagship product, Hotaly.ai. As we prepare for an exciting expansion across key cities in the UK, we are looking for a dynamic and ambitious Commercial Director to join our senior leadership team.

Position Overview:

This leadership position requires a highly motivated individual with a proven track record in managing sales teams, marketing, and finance with a strong sales background. The ideal candidate will demonstrate exceptional leadership qualities and a strong desire to advance to the position of Managing Director.

  • Cultivate strong relationships with stakeholders and clients, ensuring excellence in service delivery and customer satisfaction.
  • Utilise a hands-on approach to sales, actively participating in negotiations and closing deals.
  • Champion a solutions-oriented mindset within the team, breaking down barriers and encouraging initiative across all departments.
  • Monitor market trends and adjust strategies to maximise opportunities for growth and revenue.

Qualifications / Skills:

  • Strong sales experience is key – ideally a background in a Head of Sales role.
  • Proven experience in a senior commercial leadership role, preferably within the hospitality sector, though backgrounds in legal, beauty, or medical fields will also be considered.
  • Demonstrated success in managing and scaling sales teams, with a strong understanding of marketing and financial principles.
  • Exceptional leadership skills with a track record of building and motivating high-performing teams.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to inspire others and drive results.
  • A proactive, solution-oriented mindset, capable of navigating challenges and finding innovative ways to achieve goals.

Why Join Us?

At Hotal, we believe that the right attitude is paramount. We are looking for a Commercial Director who embodies our company values and is eager to lead from the front. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, are passionate about driving change, and are committed to personal and professional growth, we want to hear from you

  • We have an amazing culture and provide a supportive & collaborative work environment for ambitious professionals.
  • We strive to have a lively and vibrant culture with an emphasis on getting the job done whilst having fun and having a great work-life balance.
