Regional Hotel Operations Manager

We have an exciting opportunity for a Regional Operations Manager to join the team at Starboard Hotels. We are an ambitious, family-owned business, celebrating our 20th year and we've added this new position to help us on our journey as we continue to grow.

The right person will be ambitious, commercially minded, detail-oriented, with a proven track record as an Operations Manager or Multi-site General Manager experience. This is a strategic leadership role with field-based management of a team of General Managers, overseeing 15 predominantly Accor-branded hotels across the UK.

As our Regional Operations Manager, you'll use your extensive operational experience to coach and challenge your General Managers to deliver outstanding guest experiences, boost financial performance, drive food and beverage sales, meet legal and safety standards and develop strong hotel teams. You'll also be accountable for driving revenue growth, profitability, labour efficiency and overall commercial performance across your region. As we continue to grow, you can expect to support hotel acquisitions, refurbishments, openings and key business improvement initiatives. It’s important that you’re passionate about hospitality and ready to make a real difference as a leader.

The role, which reports to our Operations Director, will involve travel between our properties, and regular visits to our Chorley office to meet with your Operations colleagues. You can typically expect to be on the road four days a week, with one day working from home, but this will be largely dictated by the demand of the business and how you can best support your GMs.

As the role involves travel to properties across a wide geographical area, applicants should ideally be based in a central location with good access to major road and transport networks.

This full-time position comes with a salary of £75,000 p.a. with benefits including private medical insurance, a workplace pension, fantastic employee discounts and more.

Applications are requested by Monday the 31st of August, with short-listing and initially interviews taking place shortly thereafter.
