Responsibilities
Serving as the main point of contact with each property, the Manager fosters open communication, promptly addresses concerns, and ensures that contractual obligations are consistently met. By building trust with hotel stakeholders and proactively seeking feedback, the Manager creates strong, long-term partnerships that support service improvements and additional business opportunities
On a day-to-day basis, the Manager handles scheduling, staffing, and quality assurance at each location. Frequent site visits help identify and resolve operational issues—such as equipment malfunctions or process inefficiencies—while maintaining consistent standards of customer service
Although broad financial planning typically resides with higher-level leadership, the Manager tracks site-level revenue, payroll, and expenses to highlight trends or irregularities. By collaborating with the Regional Director on cost-control measures and accurate record-keeping, the Manager ensures each site remains financially sound and aligned with budget expectations
The Manager recruits and trains hourly associates, setting clear performance goals and offering ongoing coaching. By modeling professional behavior and upholding company policies, the Manager maintains a supportive environment that promotes both employee satisfaction and strong customer service outcomes
Regular status updates—such as weekly summaries and performance reports—keep the Regional Director informed of progress, challenges, and needs across all accounts. In emergencies or time-sensitive situations, the Manager may use personal devices to coordinate quickly with staff or leadership
Due to the geographic scope of the role, travel may be required, focusing on site visits to oversee performance, address challenges, and support new account launches. Ongoing communication is essential, providing consistent updates and performance insights into leadership. In some cases, the Manager may need to use a personal cell phone to manage operational matters effectively
Actively involve staff in planning, decision-making, and process improvement while taking full responsibility for team performance. Maintain an open and accessible leadership style, providing regular feedback, supporting skill development, and encouraging professional growth. Seek and apply feedback from both internal and external customers, promote a culture of quality, and continuously work to enhance processes, services, and supervisory skills to drive team success
Other tasks may be assigned as needed to support the company’s overall operational and financial objectives, with the expectation that the management remains flexible and responsive to evolving business needs. Attend required staff meetings and complete assigned training modules in a timely manner. Including but not limited to the ability to work flexible hours when needed, particularly during financial close periods and occasional travel for financial reviews, audits, or corporate meetings.
