About the role

This interview covers corporate, group and event business for a hotel or hotel portfolio. The panel is assessing whether you can prioritise the right accounts, protect commercial value, forecast reliably and sell promises the operations team can deliver.

How to prepare

  1. Prepare examples of winning, retaining and expanding hotel accounts with clear actions and outcomes.
  2. Review how room demand, event space, food and beverage and need periods shape a commercial offer.
  3. Practise explaining your qualification criteria and how you keep pipeline stages honest.
  4. Think through a negotiation where you traded terms or value rather than simply lowering price.
  5. Be ready to describe your handover process for a complex group or event booking.

Common mistakes

  • Listing contacts and activity without showing how they moved qualified opportunities forward.
  • Promising concessions before understanding total account value and operational cost.
  • Inflating the pipeline with opportunities that lack a clear need or decision process.
  • Leaving operations to discover important client commitments after the contract is signed.
