When it comes to hospitality management hiring, plenty of our clients are searching for astute hospitality managers to streamline operations at their establishments and ensure an unforgettable experience for guests. Our clients include:

In establishments like these, our clients constantly seek exceptional management professionals who can facilitate white-glove service that sets them apart.

The first step in hiring an effective hospitality manager should be to define the role's responsibilities and the competencies needed for success. Then, create and distribute a job description, ensuring a wide reach and a more professionally diverse candidate pool.

Screen applications for your required level of experience and skills, such as communication, organization, and the ability to prioritize. Interview a short list of candidates, select the right one for the position, and ensure a comprehensive onboarding experience to help them get acclimated to the role and business.

Alternatively, you can partner with a hospitality recruiting agency. Typically, an agency will get to know your business, provide expert consulting and guidance, and help reduce overwhelm by screening applications, interviewing and vetting candidates, and ensuring a smooth experience for everyone involved.

When it comes to hospitality management hiring, a hotel manager position has a narrower scope than a hospitality manager position. Typically, the right person for a hotel manager position has experience limited to this sector of the industry.

A hospitality manager has a broader skill set and employment history. The right person for this role has worked in a variety of hospitality establishment types and understands the nuances of running each one. 

If you are hiring for a business that includes multiple hospitality services, you may decide to hire both a hospitality manager to oversee the entire operation and a hotel manager to coordinate that one aspect of your business.

A good hospitality manager will be enthusiastic about serving others and creating an exceptional guest experience. Additionally, they should possess extensive experience in the industry, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, impeccable organizational abilities, and robust critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
