Sales Representative M/F

About the offer

Less than 2 hours from Paris, the Hôtel Windy is located on the beach of Cabourg, where Merville-Franceville-Plage disappears before the English Channel. It is a 4-star hotel with 84 rooms, right on the sand, between dunes, kitesurfing, and a Nuxe Spa: a new establishment that is reshaping the Norman coastline.

At the heart of the hotel is Merveille, our restaurant overlooking the sea, with its bright 120-seat dining room and its 80-seat terrace. Around it are convivial spaces and modular seminar rooms: Windy is designed as a living space, for both leisure stays and professional events.

Its promise: to become the unmissable destination on the Côte Fleurie, where people come as much for the place as for the view.

All that's missing is you to make it known.

Your responsibilities

You will imagine, lead, and bring to life the commercial development of Windy, across three strategic segments: MICE, groups, and individual clientele. The objective: to make Windy a destination in its own right, for companies, agencies, specifiers, and tourism partners.
