Reports to: General Manager – Brickfields
We have a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious individual with a proven track record to join our team who will be responsible for operating our new community facility, currently recognised as Brickfields Sports Centre.
As the Sales and Business Manager, you will drive revenue growth and commercial success of our multifaceted facility. You will oversee sales, revenue generation, and business development initiatives whilst ensuring the site remains a hub for fitness, recreation, events, and community activities. You will be responsible for creating and implementing strategies aimed at increasing facility rentals, memberships, and event bookings. In some cases, you’ll be the first point of contact for our members and users, so the ability to manage relationships is key.
Our service and product offer will be vast, providing opportunities for people to rent rooms, hire outdoor sports pitches, book a birthday party in our E-Sports Lounge, attend a soft play session, and join as a member of our gym and/or fitness classes.
We’re looking for an innovative individual who enjoys connecting with people and building relationships.
