What are the responsibilities and job description for the Hotel General Manager position at Quality Inn Winslow I-40?
General Manager — Owner-Operated Hotel, Winslow AZ
An engaged owner, a property mid-turnaround, and capital behind it. You bring the operating discipline.
64 rooms, Choice-flagged, limited service, right on I-40. Interstate transient, BNSF crew business, and Route 66 tourism — this market works year-round, not just in summer. New ownership, actively renovating and improving the property. We are spending money on this asset and we are not done.
You report directly to the owner. No regional director, no management-company playbook, no approval chain between you and a decision. When you need something, you ask one person and get an answer that week. If you've spent years running a property for an owner who overruled you from four states away, or who wouldn't spend a dollar on the building — keep reading.
What's already funded
- New soft goods, linens, towels, comforters, going into all 64 rooms
- Guest room renovations underway - flooring and bathrooms
- Front yard entertainment area and dog park
- Kitchenettes in 6 guest rooms for long term stays
- Hot breakfast
What you'll own
- The P&L — budget, labor, expense control, flow-through
- Rate and channel strategy (ChoiceMAX, OTA mix, direct and crew accounts)
- Hiring, training, and holding the standard across every department
- Guest scores and brand QA — cleanliness and service are how we win rate here
- The building: PM schedule, capex priorities, vendor management
- The capex list itself. You tell us what the property needs and why it pays. We fund what makes sense.
What we're looking for
- 3 years as a GM, or a strong AGM ready to run their own house
- Real P&L authority in your last role, not just a title over the desk
- You know your RevPAR index and can tell us which direction it moved under you
- You've been through a renovation or a repositioning and know how to sell through the noise
- Fluent in a PMS and a revenue system — we run choiceADVANTAGE, ChoiceMAX, and Quore
- You'll cover the desk on a Sunday when someone calls out. Small property, no bench.
The honest version
Winslow is a town of about 9,000, an hour east of Flagstaff. It's a rural market and a working hotel — inherited processes, deferred maintenance, and a team you'll need to build. This is a build job, not a caretaker job. In exchange, you get a repositioning with your name on it and the numbers to prove it.
Pay
- Competitive base pay and performance incentives
- Quarterly bonus tied to revenue, guest scores, and operating profit
- On-site manager's apartment available
How to apply
Skip the cover letter. In three sentences, give us three numbers from a property you've run: RevPAR index or STR rank, GOP or flow-through, and your brand guest score — and which way each moved under you. That's the application. Attach a resume if you have one.
We hire on results. Equal opportunity employer.
