WHAT IT MEANS TO BE PART OF INTERSTATE HOTELS AND RESORTS
We are a dedicated family of service-driven professionals
Interstate Hotels & Resorts is the leading U.S.-based independent hotel management company. But we don’t fixate on our nearly 430 hotels and 76,000 rooms throughout North America, the UK, Europe, and Russia/CIS. Instead, we prefer to focus on the personal interactions that happen between our associates and our guests at each and every hotel, every single day. It’s all about people in this, the ultimate service industry, and our people make the difference.
You LOVE sales; but you’re most passionate about strategically driving peak outcomes and orchestrating talent to make it happen. Does this resonate with you? Then, Interstate’s Director of Sales position may be your next winning lead!
- Manage all aspects of the sales and marketing division. Provide the strategic vision for maximum hotel sales generation and optimal revenue growth.

You lead by modeling the way, by empowering, and coaching throughout the employment lifecycle.
- Effectively channel your knowledge of the competitive landscape. Assess the effectiveness of company programs to determine optimum revenues using Interstate system reports and market data, in order to innovate.
- Forge relationships and build rapport. Cultivate, enhance and leverage external and internal relationships to elevate hotel and market share awareness and drive business.
- Collaborate with Finance to ensure the divisions sales plan is on budget to meet or exceed revenue expectations and profit goals.
- Expect local travel, weekly. And, national or international travel is possible four to five times per year.
