Operations Manager Administration · Hilton Garden Inn

You’ll know the difference between a hotel that runs and one that runs well — and you’ll have the financial grounding to prove it on the P&L as well as on the floor.

As Operations Manager, you'll work alongside the General Manager to lead the day-to-day running of the hotel, with a particular focus on commercial performance and guest experience across all operational departments.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading, coaching and motivating heads of department across front office, food & beverage, and housekeeping to deliver consistent, brand-standard service

• Working closely with the General Manager to set and drive commercial targets, tracking performance and adjusting operational plans accordingly

• Ensuring guest experience remains seamless across every touchpoint, resolving escalations and maintaining brand standards throughout

• Collaborating with department heads to maximise commercial results while managing costs and rota efficiency

• Maintaining a safe, secure and compliant environment for guests and team members

• Supporting recruitment, development and engagement of the wider team, helping build a culture people want to stay in

Hilton Garden Inn Glasgow City Centre sits on the banks of the River Clyde, just steps from the SEC Campus and SSE Hydro, with Glasgow's city centre a short walk away. The hotel offers 164 rooms, many with riverside views, alongside Recess restaurant and bar, a terrace overlooking the water, a fitness centre and flexible meeting space. It's a popular base for both business and leisure guests thanks to its waterside setting and easy access to the city's shopping, museums and nightlife.
