[Hiring] Sourcing Specialist @Flok

Role Description

You own venue sourcing from brief to signed contract. This is autonomous, project-based work for someone who runs their own book, not a support seat on a sourcing team.

• Assess client needs and translate them into a sourcing brief
• Research venues, build and analyze proposals, present recommendations
• Negotiate rates and concessions through to signed contract
• Run concurrent RFPs across multiple client programs
• Document the timeline and deliverables; assemble the full venue kit

Qualifications

• You have carried a number: a quota, commission, or full ownership of a contract line
• Background as a hotel group sales manager, convention services manager, CVB national sales manager, or sourcing manager at a third-party firm (HelmsBriscoe, ConferenceDirect, HPN Global) or a DMC/TMC
• You have sourced single-property programs with room blocks above 200, where the venue set is small and the negotiation is on space as much as rate
• You pull your own comps and run RFPs without being walked through them
• You decide on thin information and move, rather than waiting for direction
• You want flexible, autonomous, project-based work

Company Description

We plan corporate retreats end to end for growing companies, offering a la carte solutions across the event-management process. Our delivery network is independent operators who own their projects and pick their work, backed by a team that handles account management and technical support so you can focus on the craft.
