Hotel Site Selection Career Opportunities

NOTE: While this site is dedicated to Hawaii we are looking for people throughout the U.S. to provide site selection services not only for Hawaii but anywhere our clientele wishes to go. If you are looking foe a career in hotel site selection we would like to talk with you.

During the last 15 years 21st Century Group established itself as the pre-eminent company specializing in Hawaii hotel site selection and other assorted group related marketing activities. This has been accomplished with a lot of hard work, some very good people and an extremely well qualified customer database. In recent years, a number of trends emerged allowing for an expansion of our business beyond the islands.

1.	The global economic expansion of recent years now allows many organizations to consider destinations other than Hawaii and many of our clients are asking for assistance in those locations.
2.	As a result, in today's economy and with current technology, organizations of all types have reassigned or reallocated their meeting planning resources. Many of these of these organizations are now outsourcing hotel site selection duties as well as other meeting planning related activities. The benefits of outsourcing to companies such as ours has become apparent and our business continues to grow
3.	Hotels and resorts in just about every destination have seen their business increase. However, recent events have left many of them financially vulnerable. Many of these properties are new and have been built at a rapid pace throughout the world. All of them want to tap into the U.S. market. Some of these properties and hotel chains have no name recognition in the U.S. In order to meet their goals, they are exploring new ways to gain market share and have increasingly turned to outside companies for assistance. They are very receptive to working with site selection companies for a variety of reasons.
4.	It no longer matters where you are located. Technology has virtually eliminated all barriers that previously dictated where you had to live to conduct business. For example, as recently as last year - from Hawaii, we secured space in Cologne, Germany for a New York based client. All the way back in 2002, 21st Century Group was named Runner-Up in the Cisco Systems "Growing with Technology Awards" for using networking technology to grow our business beyond our borders (Cisco Press Release). In 2005, the company was profiled on Smart Money magazine's web site (Smart Money). We have also been featured in a number of meeting industry magazines over the years.
5.	More and more people are choosing to change their career paths because of long working hours, lengthy commutes, family commitments, need for more income, control of their own destiny and a desire to capitalize on relationships that have been built over the years.
6.	Today the company has offices in six locations, including Hawaii. Our goal is to have representatives in metropolitan areas and meeting destinations throughout the world. In some locations we may have more than one representative.
