People & Culture Manager

Qualifications

What we're looking for...

• Individuals. You're looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• Passion for hospitality - whether that's a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You're all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You're not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You're up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we'd have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
• You'll come with 2+ years' experience across all aspects of human resources within the hospitality industry.
• If you've previously opened a hotel that's a big plus; you'll need to be comfortable recruiting high volume.
• You're passionate about bringing out the best in other people and are full of ideas you want to try in achieving that goal.
• Experience dealing with legal and performance issues.
