Job Description

What Makes Us Unique At Cloudbeds, we're not just building software, we’re transforming hospitality. Our intelligently designed platform powers properties across 150 countries, processing billions in bookings annually. From independent properties to hotel groups, we help hoteliers transform operations and uplevel their commercial strategy through a unified platform that integrates with hundreds of partners. And we do it with a completely remote team. Imagine working alongside global innovators to build AI-powered solutions that solve hoteliers' biggest challenges. Since our founding in 2012, we've become the World's Best Hotel PMS Solutions Provider and landed on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 again in 2024 but we're just getting started. How You'll Make an Impact: As Regional Director for ANZ, you'll lead Cloudbeds' commercial strategy and market development across Australia and New Zealand. This is a market leadership position with a sales core. You'll own the number, but your mandate extends well beyond quota. You'll shape how Cloudbeds competes and wins in ANZ: leveraging your relationships at the ownership and industry level, establishing market credibility, and developing the commercial capability to scale the region long-term. This is a player-coach role. You'll personally close the deals that matter most while building the team and infrastructure behind you. What You Bring to the Team:

  • Define and execute the commercial strategy for ANZ — including segmentation, competitive positioning, and channel/partner approach

  • Achieve regional revenue targets through a combination of personal deal execution and team performance
  • Personally lead and close strategic accounts that establish reference momentum and market credibility
  • Build pipeline discipline, forecasting rigour, and a repeatable sales methodology for the region
  • Develop commercial deal structures that align with Cloudbeds' monetisation strategy and long-term customer value
  • Recruit, coach, and develop sales talent in the region
  • Establish the operating rhythm — pipeline reviews, forecasting cadence, and accountability standards — that underpins a high-performing sales team
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, product, customer success, and partnerships to drive regional outcomes
  • Represent Cloudbeds as a credible, senior voice at industry events, conferences, and association forums
  • Build a network of advocates and influencers who amplify Cloudbeds' position in the market

  • 7+ years in a senior commercial or sales leadership role in B2B SaaS hospitality technology or travel technology — with demonstrated experience building or scaling a region
