Job description

We’re looking for someone to build the commercial engine behind what comes next at The Social Hub. With 21 hubs across 8 countries and a major portfolio transformation underway, there’s a lot to play with: rooms, Meetings & Events, membership, coworking, F&B and the communities around our hubs. Your job is to turn all of that into one connected commercial model that drives revenue, strengthens our direct business, and improves profitability.

At the same time, you’ll help shape how we scale, both through our own assets and through Hotel Management Agreements. Big mandate, plenty of room to make your mark.

Located in The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, and the UK, with several new openings on the way, this hybrid hospitality concept may take root in the heart of Europe, but our plans are set for going global.
