Senior Sales Executive | New York City

We’re looking for a strategic Senior Sales Executive to join our New York City Sales organization and help drive the next chapter of growth across our portfolio of dynamic NYC event venues. Reporting directly to the VP of Sales, this is a senior-level opportunity for a commercially driven, highly connected sales leader with the experience, relationships, and horsepower to deliver meaningful revenue in a competitive market.

The role will focus on cultivating and closing high-value business across corporate and social event clients. The ideal candidate brings deep knowledge of the New York events market, a strong network, and a proven track record of turning relationships into revenue through strategic business development, complex negotiations, and high-value deal execution. A sophisticated understanding of hospitality, sharp commercial instincts, and the ability to turn client needs into compelling event experiences and meaningful revenue are essential.

What You’ll Do

• Proactive Market Expansion: Actively discover and engage new corporate, social, and referral partners across the New York market. Build a strong local presence for the brand through strategic prospecting, networking, trade shows, industry receptions, and informational sessions.
• Client & Relationship Ownership: Cultivate and grow relationships with current and prospective clients and referral partners, with a focus on building lasting partnerships rather than one-time bookings. Respond quickly and thoughtfully to client inquiries, lead site inspections, virtual tours, demos, and client appointments, while maintaining a deep knowledge of our products, venues, and capabilities.
• Expert Funnel Management: Own the end-to-end sales process from initial inquiry through final contract, managing a diverse pipeline across corporate meetings, social gatherings, and everything in between. Generate, negotiate, and close agreements that meet client needs while adhering to internal pricing and revenue guidelines.
• Strategic & Creative Solutions: Develop thoughtful, creative solutions that bring client visions to life while driving strong commercial outcomes. This includes designing and negotiating high-touch social events such as galas, receptions, and weddings, as well as adapting our offerings for unique programming such as evening events and fashion shows.
• Operational Agility & Deal Management
