Our brands come from humble beginnings and a passion for connecting travellers to the local authenticity of a location. We aim to bring people together in new ways, to create lifelong travel memories that can’t be found in a guidebook, and to help people discover the true experience of a place.
Through our brands Punthill Apartment Hotels and Veriu Hotels & Suites, we operate 25 hotels across Australia and have over 35 years of brand history. Our ambitious plan to operate 80 hotels by 2030 becomes closer this year with numerous new hotel openings across the country, and this means we’re well on our way to achieving our mission of becoming the largest Australian-owned apartment hotel operator.
Our people are incredible because they're empowered to be themselves. We're not about hierarchy or rigid structure. Instead, we create an environment where people can make decisions, feel supported and access unlimited opportunities for growth. Our values of Relationship-Focused, Integrity, Personal Growth & Ownership Mindset guide our actions and decisions, and are what our diverse culture is all about.
Now is the perfect time for like-minded people to join our expansion journey. If you’re looking for a meaningful role that can make a serious impact, within a culture that allows you to be truly you – you’ve found us and we can’t wait to hear from you!
Perfectly positioned right next to Sunshine Station, soon to become a major transport superhub, our new Punthill Sunshine hotel (opened in Sept 2024) is located at the heart of Melbourne’s booming western region.
With significant government investment fuelling growth, a thriving corporate market, and a lack of upscale accommodation in the area, the potential is enormous. Business is all about relationships, and your role is to make sure that when local companies need a place to stay, we’re the first name they think of—with a proposal already in their inbox, making it easy to say yes!

This role is the only sales role at Punthill Sunshine, so we're looking for someone that loves taking ownership, driving results and having autonomy in their role. This is a great entry into our group for a sales person wanting to move into a national role in the future, or for an experienced hotel reservations professional to enhance their sales career.
