General Manager – Warwick Rittenhouse Square

A historic Philadelphia landmark is entering an exciting new chapter — and we are seeking a dynamic, hands-on General Manager to lead it.

Located in the heart of iconic Rittenhouse Square, the 301-room Warwick Rittenhouse Square is a nearly 100-year-old “Grande Dame” hotel undergoing a major transformation as it evolves into a Marriott Tribute Portfolio property. The hotel features over 18,000 square feet of meeting and event space, multiple food & beverage outlets, and a residential component — creating a highly visible, complex, and high-touch operating environment.

This is not a maintenance GM role.

• Build a high-performing leadership team
• Position the hotel as one of Philadelphia’s premier lifestyle destinations

The ideal candidate brings:

• Significant full-service hotel GM experience
• REQUIRED Marriott brand experience
• Experience leading unionized hotel environments
• Strong financial acumen, labor management, and operational discipline
• Experience with renovations, repositioning, or major transitions preferred
• Proven ability to drive guest satisfaction, team engagement, and commercial performance
• Ability to lead in a fast-paced, highly visible environment with multiple stakeholders

Property Highlights

• 301 Guest Rooms & Suites
• 18,000 Sq. Ft. Meeting & Event Space
• Multiple Restaurant & Bar Outlets
• Residential Component
• Located in Philadelphia’s premier Rittenhouse Square neighborhood
• Undergoing extensive renovation and repositioning as a Marriott Tribute Portfolio Hotel

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking a leader who:

• Is visible, decisive, and operationally strong
• Understands luxury/lifestyle guest expectations
• Leads with accountability and urgency
• Can balance owner objectives with team culture and guest experience
• Knows how to navigate both brand standards and independent hotel personality
• Is comfortable driving change while preserving the legacy and history of an iconic property

This is an opportunity to lead one of Philadelphia’s most recognizable hotels through a defining moment in its history.
