Full-Time | In Person | Reports to Sales Director 

Evergreen Hospitality Group is looking for a Sales Manager to meeting and events sales across our mid-island properties with a focus at Painter’s Lodge and April Point Resort in Campbell River and Quadra Island respectively.

This is a hands-on, property-based sales role focused on building new business, converting inbound leads and developing strong relationships across Campbell River, Vancouver Island and wider BC for the benefit of the entire Evergreen portfolio. The role will work closely with the Sales Director and the operational teams at our properties

Key Responsibilities

  • Generate and convert group, meeting, event and wedding business. 
  • Develop new accounts across corporate, government, association, leisure, wedding and social markets. 
  • Respond to inbound enquiries and maintain strong, timely follow-up. 
  • Conduct site tours and property presentations. 
  • Prepare proposals, contracts and group agreements. 
  • Build relationships with wedding planners, suppliers, local businesses and tourism partners. 
  • Grow wedding accommodation blocks, rehearsal dinners, receptions, celebrations and multi-day events. 
  • Proactively prospect through sales calls, client visits, networking and industry events. 
  • Re-engage past clients and develop repeat and referral business. 
  • Work with the Sales Director on pricing, strategy, seasonal need periods and key opportunities. 
  • Maintain an accurate sales pipeline and provide regular reporting on leads, conversion and confirmed business. 
  • Ensure a clear handover of confirmed groups and events to the operational teams. 
  • Support key groups, weddings and events on property where appropriate. 

What We’re Looking For 

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, personable and commercially minded, with strong follow-up and relationship-building skills. 

Previous experience in hotel, resort, venue, event or hospitality sales is preferred, particularly experience with groups, weddings or events. The successful candidate should be comfortable developing new business, meeting clients, conducting site tours, negotiating agreements and managing multiple opportunities at the same time. 

Knowledge of Campbell River and Vancouver Island would be an advantage. 

The Opportunity 

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants real ownership of a local sales market. Working closely with the Sales Director, you’ll help build the group, wedding and event business for two of Campbell River’s best-known waterfront resorts and play a direct role in their future growth.
