General/ Holiday Home Sales Manager

Location: Swanage Bay View, BH19 2QS

Job Type: Full Time - Permanent Contract

Salary: Dependant on Experience

What We Need in a Nutshell
We’re proud to have the best General Managers in the industry, people who lead with passion, develop high-performing teams, and deliver unforgettable guest experiences. At Away Resorts, our General Managers don’t just run parks, they shape the future of our business.

We're now on the lookout for an outstanding General Manager to take the reins at Swanage Bay View Holiday Park. This isn’t just any role, it’s a dual opportunity that combines leadership of a thriving holiday park and management of holiday home sales. You’ll not only oversee the day-to-day operations but also drive our owner sales strategy and nurture long-lasting relationships with our community of holiday homeowners.

Nestled on the stunning Jurassic Coast, Swanage Bay View offers dazzling sea views, relaxed beachside living, and the perfect backdrop for your next adventure in leadership.

Who Are We?
We’re a fast-growing, award-winning holiday company shaking up the Great British break. From the sandy shores of the Isle of Wight to the scenic lakes of Lincolnshire, our resorts are known for delivering wow moments, memorable stays, and unexpected touches of delight.

It’s our people who make the magic happen. We work hard, laugh often, and care deeply about creating incredible experiences for our guests and owners alike. If you share our energy, ambition, and love for holidays, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Be Doing
As General Manager, you’ll be leading the charge in two key areas—park operations and holiday home sales:

• Inspire, manage, and develop your team of Holiday Heroes to deliver delight across every guest and owner interaction

• Oversee the full holiday home sales cycle, from lead generation to after-sales care, ensuring owners feel valued and supported throughout their journey
• Build strong, personal relationships with owners through welcome events, forums, and regular communication
• Ensure that all operational standards meet company policies, including health & safety, licensing, and food safety regulations
• Collaborate across departments to deliver a seamless, high-quality guest and owner experience

• A commercially astute mindset with a track record of delivering financial results and managing capital projects
• Excellent leadership and coaching skills with the ability to bring out the best in your team
