Front Office Manager

Richmond Hill Hotel, London’s Gateway to Nature

We’re looking for an exceptional Front Office Manager to join our team at Richmond Hill Hotel, an independent Georgian gem overlooking London’s greenest borough. Just a stone’s throw from the royal park, we’re where city buzz meets leafy calm.

Our people are at the heart of everything we do, and their warmth, energy and creativity have earned us a place on The Sunday Times’ and The Caterer’s lists of top industry employers.

Our culture? Award-winning, progressive, and delightfully independent. The building might be historic, but our thinking isn’t. We’re refreshingly free‑spirited, and we like to do things differently, from our paint to our people. Here, being yourself isn’t just encouraged, it’s essential.

We believe real luxury is found in thoughtful touches, genuine care, and attention to detail. That is what can make guests feel truly special.

What’s in it for you

• Competitive salary of up to £40,000 (depending on experience), plus a monthly service charge of approximately £400 and a 15% annual bonus.
• Access to hundreds of online perks & discounts
• Free health cashback plan for you and your family
• Salary sacrifice schemes to help you buy a bike, laptop, or gym membership.
• Free use of our onsite gym, meals on duty and parking on site
• Bespoke career development through internal and external training schemes
• Refer a friend scheme, with up to £500 incentive
• Hotel recognition Programme including our Employee of the Month and Manager of the Quarter awards, long service awards, rewards payments
• Flexible working patterns, as well as much more…
