The Opportunity

The DEV Hotel & Conference Centre is looking for a driven and results-oriented Sales Representative to support the growth of our business development activities across designated target markets. Assigned markets may include Montréal, Québec; New York City and the broader United States market; government, public-affairs, and lobbyist-related networks; as well as other strategic territories, industry segments, and relationship-based channels identified in support of the organization’s business development objectives.



This role is focused on generating new opportunities, building relationships, and feeding qualified leads into the sales pipeline. You will work closely with the Director of Business Development to help drive revenue and expand our presence across key markets.
