Full job description

The Role

The Business Development & Group Sales Manager is responsible for driving high-value group and corporate revenue by selling Draughts as a complete hosted experience, where food, drink, and play work together to maximise dwell time, spend per head, and repeat bookings.

This role focuses on quality of revenue, not just quantity of bookings.

Key Responsibilities

Outbound Sales & Pipeline Ownership (Primary Focus)

Proactively identify and pursue new group, corporate, and events opportunities
Build and manage an outbound pipeline targeting:
Corporate teams and HR / People leads
Agencies and creative studios
Local SMEs and community groups
Universities, societies, and clubs
Conduct structured outreach via email, phone, LinkedIn, and in-person meetings
Own follow-ups, objections, and deal closure

Group Sales with F&B Yield Ownership

Sell group and corporate experiences that prioritise food and drink spend, not just room hire
Confidently lead conversations around:
Sharing menus
Drinks packages
Match the right format to the right client, occasion, and budget
Maximise use of the space by reviewing different activities, even not related to the business that could be hired for

Event Structuring & Spend Optimisation

Design and recommend event formats that balance play with food and drink offerings
Coordinate with Operations on event execution and design considerations
Avoid under-selling space or time where spend potential exists
Track and show clear ROI for all events
Protect guest experience while maximising commercial return

Account Development & Repeat Business

Convert one-off bookers into repeat clients
Track not just repeat bookings, but repeat spend behaviour
Re-book clients into:
New menus
Seasonal drinks launches
Different dayparts (e.g. midweek socials, end-of-year events)
Build long-term accounts based on trust in the full experience, not discounts
Look after all group enquiries and increase revenue by upselling packages and maximising hiring fees

CRM Ownership & Sales Reporting

Take ownership of the CRM for all group and event leads
Ensure accurate logging, tagging, and follow-up of every opportunity
Maintain a live pipeline with deal value, probability, and forecast dates
Participate in weekly pipeline reviews with leadership

Commercial Insight & Feedback

Feedback insight on:
What sells fastest
Which formats repeat
Price sensitivity and objections
Soft periods and high-yield opportunities
Help inform marketing campaigns and product development
Own the writing and delivery of the business newsletter in line with the newsletter calendar, ensuring content is relevant, commercially focused, and drives engagement and repeat bookings. Suggest and implement structural changes where needed to improve performance and retention.

What Success Looks Like

A healthy, predictable outbound sales pipeline
Increasing group and events revenue month-on-month
Improved utilisation of midweek and off-peak capacity
A growing base of repeat corporate and group clients
A CRM that contains real, usable commercial data
Repeat group & events revenue growth

Skills & Experience

Has proven experience in sales, business development, or commercial hospitality roles
Is confident with outbound outreach and follow-up
Can sell experiences, and spaces
Is organised, resilient, and comfortable with targets
Understands the balance between revenue growth and guest experience
Is comfortable using CRM systems (platform-agnostic)

Nice to Have

Experience selling to or working within the London events or hospitality sector
Familiarity with group booking or events management platforms
Experience producing or contributing to client-facing communications such as newsletters, proposals, or email campaigns
