Job Description

The Operations Manager role is based within a dynamic hotel environment, where excellence in guest services and operational oversight are paramount. This position reports directly to the General Manager and plays a crucial role in ensuring that all operational departments—namely Front Desk, Housekeeping, Food and Beverage, and Engineering Operations—function seamlessly to uphold the property’s high standards of service and efficiency. The hotel is committed to delivering superior hospitality experiences, with guest satisfaction scores as a key metric for success. This commitment reflects in the rigorous adherence to standard operating procedures (SOPs) and quality assurance protocols.

This management role is designed for an experienced hotel professional who brings a hands-on approach to operational leadership and departmental collaboration. The Operations Manager will drive process improvements, coordinate staff training, and actively engage in resolving guest concerns to promote exceptional service recovery. The role involves not only managing day-to-day activities but also liaising across departments to maintain consistent inventory control, conduct audits, and uphold the facility’s brand standards.

In addition to operational oversight, the Operations Manager contributes to employee development, performing evaluations and disciplinary actions under the General Manager’s guidance. Maintaining accurate records of departmental inventories, accounting procedures, and maintenance status reports are also critical responsibilities. This position requires flexibility to work weekends and evening shifts, reflecting the 24/7 nature of hotel operations in delivering continuous guest service. Effective communication skills, organizational capabilities, and a proactive conflict resolution mindset are essential for success.

This full-time, hands-on leadership opportunity ideally fits candidates with a minimum of two years of prior hotel operations experience, proficient in property management systems and capable of handling cash and credit transactions. The Operations Manager is also expected to take part in day-to-day department duties and cover shifts as needed to foster a collaborative team environment. The role is integral in shaping memorable guest experiences, operational excellence, and sustained quality across all service points within the hotel, making it a vital function for maintaining the brand’s reputation and financial performance.
