About the role

We are looking for a decisive, visionary leader to nurture the developing team at this 95-bedroom hotel by the beautiful village of Crick, just off junction 18 of the M1.

This role reports to the Regional General Manager.

Duties include:

• Managing budgets and controlling expenditure
• Recruiting, training and managing hotel employees.

About You

You are an expert in hotel operations, but what you’re best at is people. Whether you’re nurturing a nervous new start or developing a future star, you always know how to get the best from your team. You instinctively know when it’s time to step back and empower or when you must lead decisively, and you never shy away from a tough conversation. Providing clear direction to your HODs, you create a culture of ownership, where everyone is committed to achieve together.

An ideal candidate for this role should possess the following attributes:

• Strong Leadership: You motivate and inspire your team, fostering positive work environment by leading from the front.
• Exceptional Communication: With excellent verbal and written communication skills, you are equally comfortable interacting with guests, employees and stakeholders.
• Financial Acumen: A solid understanding of budget management and the ability to drive revenue while controlling costs.
• Solution Driven: In all situations, your main goal is to provide as quick, clear and effective a solution as possible.
• Customer Centric: Dedication to ensuring exceptional guest satisfaction and experience.
• Innovative and Detail Oriented: Proactive in seeking opportunities to improve service delivery and maximise revenue, with a keen eye for detail in overseeing property maintenance, health and safety and compliance
• Team Player: Capability to recruit, train and manage a diverse team, fostering growth and development.

Benefits

Our rewards package includes:

• Discounted hotel stays around the globe, with food and beverage discounts.
• Attractive discounts across many major retailers, restaurants, and events
• FREE and UNLIMITED access to our Leisure Clubs (gym, pool, steam rooms)
• Personal and career development, including apprenticeships.
• 24/7, 365 days Employee Assistance Line for mental health and wellbeing support, financial and legal advice.

Next steps

A member of the recruitment team will be in touch to book a 15-minute chat with shortlisted candidates so we can get to know you better. We will explain the role in detail, and you can highlight your skills to us. If successful at this stage, you will meet the Regional General Manager and Director of Operations.
