Join Crystalbrook Collection in Cairns as our Groups Coordinator, supporting our Sales team to convert group enquiries into confirmed business across our hotels.

At Crystalbrook Collection, we do things differently. Driven by our mission to harness the spirit of wonder, we embrace responsible luxury with positivity, creativity, and fun, delivering locally unique hospitality experiences for our community. We're not just another hotel group — we're a bold, sustainably minded collection that puts people and place at the heart of everything we do. Guided by our values — We are Customer Obsessed, We are Collaborators, and We are Courageous — we’re passionate about creating extraordinary guest experiences and shaping a new era of hospitality.

This is a great opportunity for someone with experience in hotel sales, reservations, revenue, groups or commercial hotel operations who enjoys pace, detail, customer connection and the satisfaction of seeing enquiries turn into revenue.

Working closely with Sales Account Managers, Revenue, Food and Beverage and our CSC Groups Team, you will play an important role in delivering a seamless customer journey from enquiry through to confirmed booking and handover.

What you will be doing:

• Respond to incoming event and group enquiries in a timely, professional and engaging way
• Prepare tailored and competitive proposals including rates, inventory, terms, deposits and cancellation conditions
• Work with Revenue to ensure quotes align with demand periods, pricing strategy and commercial opportunity
• Collaborate with Sales Account Managers to support key account activity and customer relationships
• Identify opportunities to elevate the guest experience through catering, upgrades, experiences and value-add options
• Follow up issued quotes with discipline and confidence to support strong conversion outcomes
• Maintain accurate CRM records, enquiry status updates and customer information
• Provide clear handover notes to the CSC Groups and Events Teams for confirmed bookings
• Support monthly reporting on enquiry volume, conversion, revenue secured and materialisation performance

About you

You will bring a strong customer focus, great attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple enquiries, priorities and deadlines at the same time. You communicate warmly and professionally, enjoy working across departments and have the commercial confidence to balance customer needs with revenue opportunity.
