Do you thrive when everything is running like clockwork - and stay calm when it isn't?
We're looking for an experienced Operations Manager to help lead the day-to-day running of one of Bristol's most well-located hotels, working closely with the General Manager to deliver consistently high standards across every department.
The Role
You'll oversee the hotel's operational departments, supporting department heads and their teams to deliver an exceptional guest experience on every shift. A visible, hands-on leader, you'll be as comfortable on the floor as you are reviewing performance data - and you'll bring the commercial awareness to back up your operational instincts.
Your responsibilities will include:
You'll already have solid hotel operations experience, ideally at a supervisory or management level within a branded property. You'll be a natural problem-solver, a confident communicator, and someone who leads by example on the floor.
About the Hotel
Hilton Garden Inn Bristol City Centre is a 171-bedroom, four-star hotel next to historic Temple Gardens, just a three-minute walk from Bristol Temple Meads station - with direct trains to London, Cardiff, Bath and the West Country. The hotel features Recess restaurant and bar with alfresco terrace, a 24-hour fitness centre, EV charging, and flexible meeting space. Cabot Circus, the Harbourside and the Bristol Hippodrome are all less than a mile away.
In Addition to a Competitive Package, We Also Offer
Exclusive discounts for you, your friends and family
We're an equal opportunities employer, and we welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates, regardless of race, sex, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation or age. At Valor Hospitality, we actively welcome applications from candidates of all diverse backgrounds.
Every application is carefully reviewed against the relevant skills and experience for the role, and we'll be in touch if you're a good match and have been selected for interview.
