About ELO House /n ELO House runs a portfolio of 100+ furnished homes across 22+ locations in Chennai. Our guests stay for weeks and months — patients and families coming to Chennai for treatment, corporate travellers on projects, and professionals relocating to the city. /n Demand comes to us every day. What we hold is finite and constantly changing.
This role sits exactly at that intersection. /n What This Job Actually Is /n This is not a persuasion job. The people who contact us already want a home. /n Your job is to find out what a guest genuinely needs, look at what we actually have available, and connect the two — quickly, and often not in the way the guest first imagined. The guest asks for Adyar; the right home for them is in Guindy.
The guest asks for ₹35,000; the right answer is ₹45,000 with a reason they accept. Getting that match right, fast, is the entire job. /n If you have worked a live inventory — hotel rooms, seats, slots, flats — you already understand this role. /n Responsibilities /n Matching /n /n
- Qualify every enquiry properly before quoting anything: dates, duration, budget, area, number of guests, and the reason for the stay
/n
- Map the requirement against live availability across our portfolio
/n
- Present two or three genuine options, including alternatives to what the guest first asked for, with a transparent reason why each fits
/n
- Redirect location and budget expectations without discounting
/n /n Closing /n /n
- Own each enquiry end to end, from first message to confirmed booking
/n
- Handle price objections by reframing value — cost per day, inclusions, no brokerage — rather than dropping the rate
/n
- Never end a conversation without a fixed next step: a site visit slot, a callback time, or options sent within the hour
/n
- Coordinate site visits, paperwork, and check-in
/n /n Inventory intelligence /n /n
- Track availability closely enough to answer without checking twice
/n
- Work with the supply team on upcoming vacancies and blocked dates
/n
- Report recurring mismatches — the areas, budgets, and home sizes we keep losing enquiries on — so we can fix supply, not just chase demand
/n /n Discipline /n /n
- Maintain accurate records of every enquiry, its stage, and why it was won or lost
/n
- Manage 10–15 live conversations a day across phone and WhatsApp without dropping any
/n /n What We're Looking For /n Essential /n /n
- 3–6 years in reservations, inside sales, or booking-led customer roles
/n
- Direct experience selling against limited or changing availability
/n
- Fluent spoken and written English and Tamil — a large share of this job happens over WhatsApp
/n
- Demonstrable closing ability, not just relationship building
/n
- Organised by system, not by memory
/n /n Strongly preferred — candidates from /n /n
- Hotel or serviced apartment reservations
/n
- OTA and travel booking platforms
/n
- Hospital appointment desks or international patient coordination
/n
- Co-living, rental, or property inside sales
/n
- Travel agency or visa booking desks
/n /n Advantage /n /n
- Hindi or Telugu, for guests travelling from other states
/n
- Familiarity with Chennai geography, especially hospital and IT corridors
/n /n What Tells Us You're Right for This /n /n
- You ask several questions before you give a price
/n
- When you can't supply what was asked for, your instinct is to find out why it was asked for
/n
- You are comfortable saying a number and staying with it
/n
- You measure yourself by conversion, and you know roughly what yours is
/n /n What You Get /n /n
- Fixed salary plus incentive on confirmed bookings
/n
- Direct working relationship with the founder and real influence over how the sales process runs
/n
- A fast-growing portfolio and a clear path to leading the reservations team
