Sales Manager

Saphire Event Group Sales Manager

Be the first step in someone's most meaningful celebration.

At Saphire Event Group, every event begins with a conversation. Our Sales Managers are often the first people couples and event hosts meet, and the role they play in shaping that experience is essential. From first inquiry to signed contract, you will guide clients through discovering our venues, imagining their event in the space, and feeling confident they have found the right place to celebrate.

We are seeking a highly organized, relationship-driven Sales Manager who enjoys both the strategy and the human side of sales. In this role you will manage an active pipeline, lead engaging venue tours, develop customized proposals, and confidently present pricing and packages. Every interaction should reflect the hospitality, professionalism, and excitement that define the Saphire experience.
