Marketing Manager – Comfort Hotel & Stopover Hotel, Nordics

Comfort Hotel is not your typical hotel chain. We're urban, playful, sustainable and smart. We keep things simple, not standard. Stopover Hotel is our newest addition to the Strawberry family, a modern roadside hotel chain built for the Nordic road traveler, with its first hotel now open in Falkenberg. We're looking for a Marketing Manager who can help sharpen our direction within a clear fewer, bigger, better mindset, and who has the operational discipline to make things happen. 

About the Role

As Marketing Manager for Comfort Hotel & Stopover Hotel Nordics, you'll have two key areas of responsibility:

Comfort Hotel: shaping and activating our Nordic marketing plan across 44 Comfort Hotels, within a fewer, bigger, better strategy focused on fewer, stronger initiatives rather than a broad, scattered activity list.

Stopover Hotel: building the marketing foundation for our newest concept, currently with 1 hotel in Falkenberg. Stopover is designed for the modern road traveler, offering EV charging, a gym, playroom and Italian dining at Viaggio restaurant.

This is a role for someone who can both contribute to direction and execute it well. You'll keep our channels alive, relevant and engaging across both brands, working closely with an experienced specialist marketing organization, and you'll know when to push a case for change and when to hold the line on the plan already agreed. You'll work in close contact with the hotels, with regular, hands-on dialogue with the hotel General Managers, as well as close dialogue with the operations leadership for Comfort and Stopover, supporting them with marketing needs. Frequent hotel visits and travel across the Nordics are part of the role.

At Strawberry, we've built a strong central marketing setup with expertise across omnichannel, content, social media, design, paid media, digital sales, e-commerce and hotel operations marketing. You don't need to be an expert in everything, but understanding how the pieces work together is key, and knowing which specialist team to bring in rather than solving everything yourself. You will report to the Director of Marketing Hotel Operations.
