We're now looking for an exceptional Head of Weddings & Social Events to lead the commercial growth and evolution of one of our most important business segments. This is new role based from our commercial office in Central London.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of Weddings & Social Events across our collection of luxury hotels, developing market-leading propositions, driving commercial performance and ensuring every guest experience reflects the quality and individuality of the Hand Picked Hotels brand.

About the role:
Reporting to the Chief Commercial Officer, you'll work across Sales, Marketing, Revenue, Digital, Food & Beverage and Hotel Operations to strengthen our Weddings & Social Events proposition from enquiry through to delivery.
You'll combine commercial thinking with operational credibility, helping our hotels attract more guests, convert more enquiries and deliver exceptional celebrations that generate lasting memories and outstanding business performance.
Working closely with General Managers, Sales & Events teams and central support functions, you'll identify opportunities for growth, improve customer journeys and ensure our hotels remain among the UK's most sought-after wedding and event destinations.

Support hotels in delivering ambitious Weddings & Social Events revenue targets.

Improve sales performance and conversion

Bring together Sales, Marketing, Revenue, Operations and Food & Beverage teams to deliver a consistent, market-leading guest experience.
Support capability development and coaching across hotel teams.
Ensure new initiatives are successfully implemented across multiple properties.

About you
You'll be an experienced Weddings or Events senior sales professional with a strong commercial mindset and a passion for creating exceptional guest experiences, driving sales and converting business. You will have solid connections within the industry including key relationships with exclusive wedding planners.
You'll also bring:

Significant experience leading premium Weddings and Social Events within hospitality or luxury venues.
A strong understanding of the complete customer journey—from inspiration and enquiry through to flawless event delivery.
Experience developing propositions that increase demand, conversion and revenue.
Commercial awareness with strong analytical skills and the ability to interpret performance data.
Knowledge of digital marketing, customer acquisition and conversion strategies.
Outstanding stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across multiple teams.
A collaborative leadership style and a hands-on approach to delivery.
Excellent communication and presentation skills.
Willingness to travel regularly to our hotels.

You'll work alongside passionate colleagues, influence strategy at Group level and help create extraordinary celebrations that guests will remember forever.
This is a rare opportunity to combine commercial leadership with creativity, innovation and exceptional hospitality.
