Job description

Recess is where the everyday takes a break.

Opening in Fall 2026, Recess Hotel & Club is bringing a new kind of hospitality to the heart of Savannah. Housed within the historic Manger Building, Recess blends a 221-room lifestyle hotel with a members club, rooftop pool, French brasserie, wellness club, coworking spaces, and lively social venues—all designed around one simple idea: life is better when there's room to play.

Recess is the newest project from Left Lane, the team behind Hotel Bardo Savannah. In just one year, Bardo has earned Condé Nast Traveler's inaugural Triple Crown distinction —recognizing hotels that have achieved the publication's Hot List, Gold List, and Readers' Choice Awards—along with the inaugural Michelin Key designation and recognition from Travel + Leisure as one of the Best New Hotels of the Year. It’s this same commitment to thoughtful hospitality and unforgettable experiences that we’re bringing to Recess.

We’re building more than a hotel. We’re building a team of people who believe great hospitality is thoughtful, personal, and a little unexpected. Whether you’re welcoming guests, creating memorable meals, keeping the operation running seamlessly, or leading a team, every role helps shape the Recess experience from day one.

If you’re curious, collaborative, and excited by the opportunity to build something from the ground up, we’d love to meet you.

Find and seek. Stay here, play here. Welcome to Recess.
