We take pride in our role as trusted partners to travel professionals worldwide, providing world-class accommodations, unparalleled service, and exclusive privileges in premier destinations. Role Overview The Group Sales Supervisor plays a pivotal role in turning group travel opportunities into exceptional experiences and meaningful revenue for Classic Vacations. Responsible for supporting the front end of the group sales journey, this position oversees the progression of qualified group opportunities from initial inquiry through signed contract and deposit, ensuring each interaction reflects the responsiveness, expertise, and service excellence that define the Classic® difference. This is more than a traditional group sales role. The Group Sales Supervisor combines consultative selling, relationship management, negotiation, operational discipline, and team leadership to create a seamless experience for Travel Advisors, agency partners, and their clients. From destination weddings and room blocks to other group travel opportunities, this role helps clients navigate important decisions while keeping each opportunity moving confidently toward conversion. As a supervisor, this position also helps create clarity and accountability within the Groups team.

Why This Role Matters Group travel represents some of the most meaningful and memorable experiences our clients will ever plan. Weddings, celebrations, milestone trips, and shared adventures bring together multiple travelers, competing priorities, detailed negotiations, and significant expectations. The Group Sales Supervisor helps transform that complexity into confidence. This role matters because the earliest stages of a group opportunity often determine whether we earn the business and establish the trust necessary for a successful long-term relationship.

The role also strengthens the health and performance of the broader Groups organization. Clear communication, accurate documentation, disciplined handoffs, and shared accountability create an environment where Sales and Group Coordination can operate as one cohesive team. By ensuring that contracted business is accurate, complete, and positioned for successful fulfillment, this role creates a stronger experience for everyone who touches the booking.
