Housekeeping Manager

At Kalahari Resorts & Conventions, our Promise is simple:
Lead with Love. We care deeply for our guests, associates, and communities—treating people like family and creating spaces where everyone feels valued.

In this role, you will be responsible for the efficient and effective daily operation of the housekeeping department and supervising all housekeeping staff. We are seeking someone who brings energy, leadership, and a passion for pristine spaces! From fluffed pillows to gleaming floors, you’ll lead the crew that keeps our massive resort looking flawless for every guest, every day. Sparkle, Shine, and Lead the Way!

As part of our leadership team, you’ll embody our Promise to Lead with Love—guiding, supporting, and inspiring associates while delivering extraordinary guest experiences. You’ll play a vital role in creating a clean, welcoming, and comfortable environment that directly impacts guest satisfaction and overall resort experience. You’ll also support the associate experience by leading housekeeping teams through training, recognition, and operational support to maintain high standards, efficiency, and team morale.
