We’re partnering with a well-established hotel in a beautiful and scenic beach location, part of a leading international hospitality group, to appoint a newly created HR Manager role. Because the role is new, you’ll have the chance to shape it from the ground up and make a real impact on how the hotel manages its people.
Working closely with the HR Director, you’ll take ownership of workforce analytics, labour cost management, rostering efficiency and employment compliance, helping the hotel make smarter, data-led decisions about its people. Your insights will directly influence how the hotel plans for, invests in and supports its teams.
The role also includes complimentary on-site accommodation and meals, so you can enjoy beachside living while keeping your day-to-day costs low. Our client is also open to visa sponsorship for the right candidate. If you’re an analytical HR professional who likes turning numbers into practical outcomes, and you’re ready for a career move as rewarding as the setting, we’d love to hear from you.
