About the location:

• A landmark on lake Geneva since 1834. With enchanting views of the lake and the snow-capped Alps in the distance as well as the Old Town, Geneva’s first hotel remains the first choice of sophisticated travellers and world statesmen. Come and unwind from your day with a treatment at our rooftop Spa, and build connections with colleagues over Italian gastronomy at Michelin-starred Il Lago before retreating to your Pierre-Yves Rochon–designed room for a good night’s sleep. Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva blends a revitalized sense of history with warm and genuine personal service in the very heart of the city.

Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues is Geneva’s first hotel and a landmark, blending contemporary and classic decor, steps away from the lake, the Old Town and the famous Quartier des Banques with a beautiful view of the Jet d’Eau. A state of the art Spa and a vibrant F&B operation complement the exceptional service provided by our extraordinary team.

Reporting to the Hotel Manager, this role is responsible for all operational, financial, and people-related matters in Front Office, Concierge and Guest Services and Housekeeping.

The role balances the critical importance of strategic, high-level leadership with the day-to-day management of the operation by developing and engaging the team, monitoring standards, problem-solving, and delivering results for the business from a people, product, and profit perspective. To thrive in this role, the ideal candidate will have an exceptional eye for detail, a strong understanding of luxury service delivery and expectations, a thirst for multitasking, and a hunger for results, while cultivating a constructive, collaborative, and performance-driven team culture.

• • Set strategic and operational direction in collaboration with the executive leadership team
  • Provide leadership, coaching and constructive feedback, setting development plans and succession planning strategies for Rooms Division Managers and future leaders.
