Cluster Corporate Sales Manager – The Builder of Strategic Partnerships
Operational & Pre-Opening Leadership 

At InterContinental Residences Dubai Business Bay and Kimpton Sevn Dubai, we are seeking a Cluster Corporate Sales Manager—a strategic, relationship-driven professional who thrives on building partnerships, driving corporate business, and leading a high-performing sales team across two exceptional brands.

This role is ideal for an experienced sales leader who enjoys guiding teams, developing corporate accounts, and translating business insights into measurable commercial results.

This is more than a corporate sales leadership role.

InterContinental Residences Dubai Business Bay offers refined luxury for extended stays, executive living, and sophisticated business travellers. Kimpton Sevn Dubai introduces lifestyle luxury to Downtown Dubai—bold, expressive, and deeply human.

Together, they require a sales leader who can balance strategy and execution, structure and creativity, and corporate growth with brand integrity.

Corporate business is a critical pillar of revenue and long-term success for both properties.

As Cluster Corporate Sales Manager, you will drive corporate strategy, strengthen strategic partnerships, and oversee the execution of negotiated business across both hotels.

Your leadership ensures our properties are the preferred choice for business travellers, relocation partners, and corporate decision-makers in Dubai’s highly competitive hospitality market. This role offers an opportunity to shape commercial strategy while developing your leadership career within one of the world’s leading hospitality brands.

As Cluster Corporate Sales Manager, you will lead, mentor, and inspire a corporate sales team while managing key accounts and building new partnerships. You will translate market intelligence into actionable strategies and ensure commercial success across both properties.

Bring your leadership style and commercial acumen to inspire your team, challenge assumptions, and drive results across both properties.

Design and execute corporate sales strategies that expand market share, strengthen relationships, and maximize revenue opportunities.

Your leadership and execution will directly impact corporate revenue, account retention, and negotiated business performance.

Reporting to the Cluster Commercial Director, the Cluster Corporate Sales Manager will oversee corporate sales strategy, team development, and key account management across two pre-opening and operational hotels.

• The Opportunity: Expand and retain corporate accounts in local, regional, and international markets
• The Strategy: Lead corporate sales execution, negotiated rate programs, and partnership initiatives
• The Growth: Drive measurable commercial results while mentoring a team and contributing to cluster-wide revenue performance

At Kimpton, individuality and authentic connections drive everything we do through the Stay Human Project.
At InterContinental Residences, trusted service and relationship-driven hospitality create lasting guest loyalty.

This role combines commercial ambition with authentic connection—because strong partnerships are built by people, not just contracts.

Every day offers something new, but you’ll often be focused on:

• Develop and execute corporate sales strategies across both hotels
• Identify new corporate business opportunities and maintain strong key account relationships
• Oversee negotiated agreements, corporate rate programs, and long-term partnerships
• Align corporate sales activities with revenue and marketing strategies

• Introduce Kimpton Sevn Dubai to corporate accounts ahead of opening

• Support reporting, forecasting, and budget planning for corporate business

• Represent the hotels at networking events, trade shows, and client meetings
• Maintain visibility and relationships within Dubai’s corporate travel market
• Serve as a trusted advisor and brand ambassador to corporate clients

This role could be a great fit if you:

• Are a self-motivated professional who enjoys taking full ownership of corporate accounts
• Thrive on building and nurturing strong business relationships
• Are curious about corporate travel, relocation programs, and the business market
• Want to grow your commercial and strategic career in hospitality sales
• Excel in a fast-paced, results-driven environment
• Take pride in delivering exceptional client service and measurable business impact

• Bachelor’s degree in hospitality, Business Administration, Marketing, or a related field preferred
