Business Development Manager — Hotel & Resort Acquisitions

Rangmanch Hospitality & Leisure is the hospitality group behind Rangmanch Farms — a 20+ acre resort and events destination about 40 minutes from Delhi via the Dwarka Expressway, running stays, weddings, corporate events, and 80+ activities. Over the next five years, the group plans to operate multiple resorts and venues across North India through leases and management contracts. This role is the engine of that plan.

We are hiring a Business Development Manager for hotel and resort acquisitions. Your job: identify, evaluate and help sign the properties we take over — working directly with the founder, who makes decisions fast.

What you will do

• Source properties through owners, brokers, market scans and on-ground scouting; build a real owner and broker network

• Visit and evaluate assets: location, condition, room count, capex needed, market demand, competition, achievable rates and occupancy

• Build the deal case in Excel: revenue and cost projections, lease rent or minimum-guarantee / revenue-share economics, payback etc.

• Present evaluated deals to the founder with a clear recommendation: take it, negotiate, or walk

• Negotiate term sheets with owners; support diligence and legal through signing

• Hand over signed properties to the operations team and support the transition

• Maintain knowledge base of key prioritised locations in terms of key areas, going market rates, market potential

Please read before applying

This is NOT a hotel sales role. We are not hiring for room nights, banquets, MICE or corporate sales. This is a property acquisitions role - if your experience is selling hotel inventory rather than signing hotel properties, this will not be a fit.

What you'll get

Competitive Salary + attractive incentive on signing of the deal. Travel allowance.
