🧑🏻‍💻 About the role

First things first: you want to know what you’re actually applying for. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distill it down to a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:

As a Business Development Representative, you will be joining our growing Commercial team and establishing a new arm of the business on a global scale. The ideal candidate will be determined to play their part in bringing about change within the hospitality industry through innovative technologies. Our goal is to radically change the interaction between guests and hotels.

We’re building a vibrant sales hub in Dallas. Though Mews remains remote-first, we’re looking for team members who want to develop their careers in a collaborative, in-person environment, learning with their teammates in the office at least 3 days a week.

You'll focus specifically on hotel owners and operators affiliated with AAHOA (Asian American Hotel Owners Association) and independent hotel operators. Your mandate: build pipeline, exceed quota, and act as the go-to expert within our company for this strategic vertical. 

What You’ll Be Doing: 

At Mews, sales success is built on execution, discipline, and adaptability. Here’s what a productive week might look like: 

  • Own Your Market: Identify, engage, and sell to AAHOA-member properties, multi-property operators, and independent hotels. Build and execute a territory plan targeting owners, GMs, and regional leaders. 
  • Drive Outbound Momentum: Generate new business through 100+ weekly outbound activities; building relationships, qualifying prospects, and sparking meaningful conversations. 
  • Lead High-Impact Conversations: Present a high-level introduction of Mews to potential clients/prospects with discovery conversations, showing hoteliers why Mews is the game-changer they need. Deliver compelling presentations in English and, when necessary for effective customer communication in Gujarati to serve customers who prefer conducting business in these languages. 
  • Sell with Strategy and Empathy: Use your language and cultural fluency to build trust. Apply storytelling and value-based selling to influence decision-makers from GMs to Finance and Ops leaders. 
  • Collaborate for Impact: Partner with Marketing (to drive event attendance at AAHOA conferences/tradeshows), Customer Success, and Product/Implementation to ensure seamless onboarding and lasting customer success. 
  • Thrive Under Pressure: Mews moves fast; bring energy, focus, and resilience to deliver results when it counts. 
  • Show Up Where It Matters: Attend industry events, including AAHOA national/regional conferences. Conduct in-person meetings as needed. Travel up to ~30–40%. 
  • Keep Growing: Deepen your hotel-tech and hospitality expertise to be a trusted advisor. Use data to refine your strategy and stay ahead. 

Who You Are 

You’ll be a great fit if you:  

  • Based in Dallas/Fort-Worth 
  • Fluency (spoken and written) in English & Gujarati. Business Justification: This requirement is necessary for effective job performance as approximately 65% of our target customer base in the AAHOA segment conducts business communications and prefers service delivery in these languages, requiring frequent direct communication to build relationships, conduct sales presentations, and provide ongoing account management. 
  • 1+ years of B2B sales experience with outbound/prospecting (preferably in hospitality technology or with hotel owners/operators). 
  • Proven track record of meeting or exceeding quota. 
  • Experience selling complex solutions, managing multi-stakeholder decision-making (owners, GMs, corporate operations). 
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills — you build trust quickly, ask insightful questions, listen, adapt your message. 
  • Demonstrated ability to self-generate outbound pipeline as well as manage inbound leads. 
  • Strong organizational skills: you manage many opportunities, follow the process, maintain CRM hygiene. 
  • Comfortable traveling and participating in industry events. 
  • Preferred Qualifications: Prior relationships within the AAHOA member community, understanding of independent/soft-brand hotel ownership challenges, knowledge of hospitality ownership operational culture. 

Why This Role Matters 

The AAHOA member segment and independent hotel ownership market represents a major and underserved growth opportunity in U.S. hospitality technology. Language and cultural fluency are differentiators that enable effective relationship building and communication. Your ability to speak Hindi, Gujarati or Punjabi, while selling consultatively, provides unique positioning to build credibility, drive pipeline, and close business with customers who prefer conducting business in these languages. If you're an ambitious sales professional who thrives on building relationships, closing new business, and can fluently engage in the required languages, we'd love to chat.

🤷🏻 Who is Mews?

We want to get to know you, so it’s only fair we tell you a little bit about ourselves first. Mews has been transforming hospitality since 2012. What began in a single hotel in Prague now powers thousands of hotels around the world, as they pursue their mission to develop transformational solutions for brands and create remarkable experiences for guests. 

Since the beginning, Mews embraced being different. Mews is not simply a property management system, but a connected hospitality cloud with products across the hotel ecosystem and more integrations than anyone else. 

From global hospitality brands to independent properties, hoteliers join Mews because they recognize the power of innovation. They understand that they can benefit from hotel tech that drives efficiency, maximizes revenue, and improves guest happiness.

Powering over 5,000 customers across more than 85 countries, Mews Hospitality Cloud is designed to streamline operations for modern hoteliers, transform the guest experience and create more profitable businesses. 

Ranked 24th in the FT 1000 list of the fastest-growing European companies in 2021, Mews has been recognized as the Best PMS by industry peers at the HotelTechAwards in both 2020 and 2024, consistently earning acclaim. Mews also achieved finalist status in 2021 and 2022. What's more, we take immense pride in being listed among the Best Places to Work in Hotel Tech during those same years and again this year. But our achievements don't stop there; Mews was also listed among the World's Best Hotel PMS Provider 2023 and as the World's Best Independent Hotel PMS Provider 2022 and 2023 by the World Travel Tech Awards.

💭 Life at Mews

That’s what we do, but what about who we are? Mews’ culture is special and difficult to capture in words, which makes writing this tricky. You'll experience the freedom to be yourself and the ability to watch your ideas come to life. You’ll have an open line of communication and an open invitation to after-work drinks, be they virtual or in-person. Sometimes the work can be challenging and there can be a lot of it, but you’ll always be able to rely on those around you.

Yes, we’re ambitious and we move fast, but we know the value of fun and taking a breather. We have slack channels for almost every interest imaginable, and an all-company meeting every Friday gives you the chance to ask any question to our leadership team.

One very important note: don’t hold back. Even if you don’t meet 100% of the criteria listed in this job description, we still encourage you to apply.

🤖 AI and Hiring at Mews

At Mews, we believe AI enhances our work but should not replace what humanises it and makes it individually ours. We see AI as a tool to support research, generate ideas, and drive efficiency, but creativity, critical thinking, and opinions differentiate us. As you apply, feel free to use AI to help structure your thoughts — but ensure your application and conversations with us, reflect your personal opinions, capabilities and experience. We’re building an AI-enabled workforce, and that starts with people who think independently and bring fresh ideas to the table. Because at Mews, making work more human is the ultimate goal.
