Property Description

 

Parrot Key Hotel & Villas delivers a relaxed, upscale island experience set across lush tropical grounds just minutes from Old Town Key West. Featuring spacious rooms and private villas, four resort-style pools, and vibrant dining, the property blends laid-back luxury with a strong, guest-focused culture—making it an ideal setting for hospitality professionals looking to grow in a dynamic resort environment.

Responsibilities

Join the team at Parrot Key Hotel & Villas, a tropical waterfront retreat in the heart of Key West, where laid-back island charm meets an elevated resort experience. We are seeking a dynamic, results-driven Senior Marketing Manager to lead the property's marketing strategy, drive revenue growth, and strengthen its position as a premier Key West destination. This is an exciting opportunity for a strategic and creative marketing leader to make a measurable impact on the resort's commercial success. This role will also play a pivotal part in the resort's next chapter, leading the launch and activation of its refreshed brand identity across all marketing channels and guest touchpoints.

The Senior Marketing Manager is a strategic, results-driven leader responsible for developing and executing integrated marketing strategies that drive revenue growth, increase market share, strengthen brand positioning, and support the overall commercial success of the hotel.

Serving as a key member of the property's commercial team, this role translates business objectives, market insights, and performance data into actionable marketing strategies that generate measurable results. The Senior Marketing Manager partners closely with Revenue Management, Sales, Operations, Food & Beverage, and corporate marketing teams to identify growth opportunities, optimize marketing investments, and drive demand across key customer segments and revenue streams.

This position requires a proactive, analytical, and commercially minded leader who takes ownership of marketing performance, challenges conventional thinking, and continuously identifies opportunities to improve results. Success is measured not simply by the execution of marketing initiatives, but by their ability to contribute to the hotel's revenue, profitability, market positioning, and long-term business objectives.
