Description

The Opportunity

As General Manager, you will have overall responsibility for the leadership and performance of the hotel. You will set the tone for the property, developing a strong leadership team and an associate culture focused on accountability, collaboration, service excellence, and results.

You will take a hands-on, strategic approach to the business—maintaining a strong presence throughout the hotel while leveraging financial, operational, guest satisfaction, and market data to identify opportunities and drive performance.

What You’ll Do

  • Provide strategic and operational leadership for all aspects of the hotel, including rooms, food & beverage, sales, revenue performance, finance, and People & Culture.
  • Build, develop, and inspire a high-performing leadership team while creating a culture of engagement, accountability, and exceptional service.
  • Drive overall hotel performance by balancing guest satisfaction, associate engagement, revenue growth, profitability, and asset stewardship.
  • Maintain a strong understanding of the hotel’s financial performance, including budgets, forecasts, P&L results, labor management, revenue trends, and cost controls.
  • Partner closely with Sales, Revenue Management, and other commercial leaders to maximize market share, occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, and overall profitability.
  • Provide leadership and oversight of the hotel’s food & beverage operations, ensuring strong service, quality, financial performance, and guest satisfaction.
  • Maintain a highly visible presence throughout the property, regularly evaluating service delivery, cleanliness, physical condition, and overall guest experience.
  • Recruit, develop, coach, and retain talented department leaders while establishing clear expectations and performance standards.
  • Foster strong relationships with Hilton, ownership, Crescent leadership, community partners, and other key stakeholders.
  • Serve as an ambassador for the hotel and Crescent Hotels & Resorts within the local community and hospitality industry.
  • Ensure the hotel operates in accordance with brand standards, Crescent policies, and all applicable regulatory requirements.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3–5 years of successful General Manager experience in a full-service hotel environment required.
  • Demonstrated experience leading a hotel with significant food & beverage operations.
  • Proven ability to lead a complex, fast-paced operation while maintaining high standards for guest service and associate engagement.
  • Strong financial and business acumen with demonstrated experience managing budgets, forecasts, P&L performance, labor, and profitability.
  • Commercial mindset with an understanding of sales, revenue management, market positioning, and competitive performance.
  • Experience with Hilton or another major full-service hotel brand strongly preferred.
  • Track record of developing strong leadership teams and creating an engaged, performance-driven culture.
  • Strong communication, relationship-building, and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Ability to maintain a flexible schedule based on the needs of a 24/7 hotel operation.
  • Ability to travel as needed for corporate meetings, business development, and industry events.

What We Offer

Crescent Hotels & Resorts Is Committed To Providing Our Leaders With The Resources, Support, And Opportunities They Need To Succeed, Including

  • Competitive executive compensation package
  • Eligibility for an operational incentive plan
  • Comprehensive benefits for eligible associates and family members
  • 401(k) matching program
