Charter sales refer to the process of selling or arranging the rental of transportation vehicles, such as airplanes, buses, yachts, or trains, for private or group use. Professionals in charter sales work with clients to understand their travel needs, provide quotes, coordinate logistics, and ensure a seamless experience from booking to completion.

Charter sales roles require strong communication, customer service, and organizational skills to manage multiple bookings and deliver high-quality service.

How to get into charter sales?

To get into charter sales, candidates typically need strong sales skills, excellent communication, and knowledge of the industry or product.

Building a network and understanding client needs are also important for success in this role.

What are some of the common challenges faced in a charter sales role, and how can I best prepare for them?

Charter Sales professionals often encounter challenges such as fluctuating demand, tight booking timelines, and the need to balance client expectations with operational capabilities. Success in this role requires adaptability, strong communication skills, and thorough knowledge of both the fleet and market trends. To prepare, focus on building relationships with repeat clients, staying up-to-date on industry regulations, and working closely with operations and scheduling teams to ensure smooth charter experiences.

As we expand our U.S. Charter Sales team, we're seeking driven, entrepreneurial sales leaders to champion the Central (Houston/Dallas, TX-based) territories. This is a unique opportunity to join a global leader with a robust managed fleet, a collaborative culture, and a reputation for excellence.
We're looking for "hunters"-proven sales professionals with an existing retail charter book of business, ready to leverage their network and expertise to drive growth. If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-touch environment and are passionate about delivering world-class service, Jet Aviation offers the platform, support, and vision to take your career to new heights.
As the Director of Sales, you will be responsible for driving the growth of sales and revenue specifically within our Charter division. You will develop and execute strategies to identify new business opportunities, nurture existing client relationships, and close high-value deals. This is an individual contributor role, allowing you to focus fully on high-level strategic sales execution.
You will also play a hands-on role in managing the end-to-end charter experience for our clients. This includes booking, accommodating changes to, and confirming all details for charter trips, while coordinating directly with our Charter Operations Team to deliver a superior and consistent level of service. You will watch over every trip and detail to ensure a seamless and successful charter experience.
This role is an office-based position, on a hybrid schedule, working at least three times weekly from the office.

  • American markets are strongly preferred.
  • Entrepreneurial Spirit: Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working independently to build and close new business.
  • Client-Focused: Exceptional customer service skills and the ability to interact successfully with C-level executives and affluent individuals, both in person and via telephone. You possess the ability to stay calm and solutions-oriented in high-stress situations to accommodate customer demands.
  • Collaborative: You value teamwork and know how to partner with operations, quoting, and contracting teams to ensure accuracy and client satisfaction.
  • Adaptable: You thrive in a dynamic, evolving environment and are eager to contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.
  • Market Awareness: You maintain thorough knowledge of fleet availability, competitor pricing, and regional travel trends.
  • CRM Proficiency: You are diligent in logging customer interactions, account changes, and sales pipelines in CRM systems to provide accurate forecasting to management.

Your Role
As Charter Sales Director, you will:
  • Drive Revenue: Identify, pursue, and close new charter opportunities, expanding Jet Aviation's presence in your territory. Proactively contact prospective air charter clients to originate sales opportunities through email campaigns, cold calling, promotional events, and site visits.
  • Leverage Your Book: Bring your existing client relationships and market knowledge to deliver immediate impact, driving increases in both client base and retention for ad hoc and block charter programs.
  • Deliver Excellence: Book, accommodate changes to, and confirm details for charter trips. Oversee every aspect of the charter experience, coordinating directly with the Flight Operations Team to ensure superior and consistent service.
