Job Description
Job Title: Hotel General Manager
Location: Fort Wayne, IN
Salary: $80,000 - $96,000 (DOE)
Benefits: Quarterly bonus potential of $5,000 (up to $20,000 annually), relocation assistance, and temporary housing for up to 30 days
What We're Looking For:
A well established hotel management group is seeking a proven Hotel General Manager to lead a recently renovated 62 room select service property in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The hotel runs approximately $1.5 million in annual revenue, is holding 68 percent occupancy year to date, and currently leads its competitive set. Amenities include an indoor pool, complimentary breakfast, and a fitness center.
This is a role for an experienced operator, not a first time General Manager. Ownership wants a top performer who can run the property with real independence: someone strong across P&L, sales, quality assurance, guest satisfaction, purchasing, and staffing, who moves things forward daily without needing to be followed up on. Candidates with a track record of brand or ownership awards are especially encouraged to apply. Relocation candidates are welcome and encouraged.
Key Responsibilities
- Own total property performance, including revenue, expenses, and bottom line profitability
- Build, review, and manage the annual budget and monthly P&L, and explain variances
- Drive top line revenue through local sales efforts, account development, and rate strategy
- Lead guest satisfaction and reputation management, responding to feedback and closing service gaps
- Maintain brand quality assurance standards and prepare the property for inspections and audits
- Recruit, hire, train, and retain a full property team across front office, housekeeping, and maintenance
- Coach and develop department leads, and hold the team to consistent daily standards
- Manage purchasing and vendor relationships to control cost without compromising the guest experience
- Oversee preventative maintenance and capital projects to protect the recent renovation
- Ensure compliance with all brand, safety, and employment requirements
- Partner with regional leadership on strategy, forecasting, and reporting
- Serve as the visible leader of the hotel in the local market and business community
If interested, please apply or send your resume to mckenna@geckohospitality.com.
