About Touchwood Bliss
Touchwood Bliss is a nature retreat in the hills of Igatpuri, close to the Samruddhi Highway and roughly a 2.5–3 hour drive from Mumbai. It positions itself as Asia's first exclusively pure-vegetarian resort, serving Jain and multi-cuisine vegetarian food. Stay options include glamping tents, Courtyard Villa rooms and Farmsyde Villa rooms (about 60 keys in all).
The resort has six event spaces, including the Birds Song banquet hall, the Campsyde and Greensyde lawns, and Roots Cafe, suited to weddings, family functions, offsites and conferences.
Role purpose The Sales Head will build and convert a steady pipeline of destination weddings and corporate groups, filling the resort's rooms, lawns and banquet spaces year-round. The role sets the sales strategy, leads the sales team, and owns the full cycle from lead to signed contract to a smooth handover to operations.
A key part of the job is turning the pure-veg, Jain-friendly and nature-retreat positioning into a clear advantage with Marwari, Gujarati, Jain and other vegetarian families, and with companies looking for a quiet offsite within driving distance of Mumbai and Pune.
