Global Sales Director - TMC, Consortia & Extended Stay (m/f/d)
ABOUT THE ROLE
The Mission
As the Global Sales Director, TMC, Consortia & Extended Stay, you own two equally strategic pillars of Numa's global commercial growth: managing Travel Management Companies (TMCs) and Consortia as key global accounts, while also driving Numa's Extended Stay strategy and relationships into the corporate housing and relocation market.Your mission is to build and scale a high-growth intermediary channel strategy with a global account management approach - deep relationships, complex negotiations, strategic distribution optimization and a long-term view of the account. This role is pivotal to the Numa Sales organisation acting as a central coordination across sales, revenue, distribution and reservation teams.
You are the architect of both agendas: securing and growing Numa's standing with top-tier TMCs and Consortia as a preferred accommodation partner, while independently driving Extended Stay as a core revenue segment liaising with key corporate serviced accommodation providers and relocation management companies, unlocking new demand.
