Hotel Operations Manager - Bury

As our Hotel Operations Manager, you are the operational anchor of the entire hotel. You will deputise for the General Manager, actively coaching the Heads of Department across Food & Beverage, Rooms, and Host teams, ensuring commercial targets are smashed without ever compromising on the guest experience., As our Hotel Operations Manager, you are the engine of the shift. We trust you to handle:

• The Commercial Engine: Driving the \"Big 4\" (food costs, wet margins, energy, and payroll). You will flex payroll to align with revenue, control stock processes, and avoid relying on intuition-instead tracking quantifiable application velocity metrics and KPIs to monitor your HODs' performance.
• The People Leadership: Acting as the critical communication channel between the GM and the operational teams. You will coach, mentor, and performance manage your HODs, fostering a culture where internal promotions from Team Leader level are the absolute norm.
• The Standards: Championing our Excellence standards. You will influence the team to deliver amazing hospitality, carrying out internal audits, and ensuring ReviewPro and Mystery Dining targets are living and breathing in every single department.
  At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences for our guests and each other. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers. Previous experience is great, but your attitude and energy matter much more to us. If you are friendly, positive, love working with people, and enjoy being part of a busy team, we will give you all the support, training, and opportunities you need. Because it really does take a Village., We are not looking for perfect CVs, we are looking for great people.
