  Carlton Tel Aviv Hotel

  Apr 2005 - Nov 2009

  In the last three years I've been working at a leading five star hotel as a Revenue Manager. I did the Revenue Management tasks for the hotel on a regular basis. That included consulting the G.M and the Director of Sales on sales and marketing strategies. One of my key achievements was when I dealt with Corporate Accounts back in 2008: I managed to double the room nights from 326 to 650 for "Intel", one of our largest accounts. I also acquired/signed up through negotiation other important accounts like: Converse, Siemens, Daimler/Chrysler, McKinsay and Company, Kodak and many more.I researched, targeted and approached international OLTAs and negotiated with them different contracts based on room nights achieved at the hotel.
