Shape Culture. Develop Talent. Make a Lasting Impact.
Great hotels are built by great people.
At LGH Hotels Management, we know that exceptional guest experiences begin behind the scenes—with engaged teams, inspiring leaders, and a culture where people feel valued, supported, and able to thrive. We're looking for a People & Development Director to partner with our leadership teams across four hotels.
This is far more than a traditional HR role. You'll be a trusted business partner, culture champion, coach, and change leader, helping our hotels build engaged teams that deliver extraordinary results.
You'll work closely with General Managers and operational leaders to create environments where people feel a sense of belonging, purpose, growth, and recognition—the foundations of high-performing teams and exceptional hospitality.
