This role is responsible for ensuring smooth daily operations, exceptional guest experiences, and high service standards across reception, concierge, and guest relations. The successful candidate will be a confident leader with strong operational knowledge and a passion for hospitality excellence. THE STAGE IS SET The stage is set for something different. We don’t run conventional hotels; we build places with character and intent.

Locke leads with bold expression; Cove by Locke refines that same spirit into a quieter, more streamlined approach. Guests come to rest, work, or escape.

We entrust our vision, purpose and brand to the hands of our teams. It’s a big responsibility and this is why we seek and develop unique individuals to lead the charge. In an (overly simplistic) nutshell our House Hosts are; Confident, warm and effervescent individuals, focussed on curating an experience that each one of our guests desires from the moment they step over our threshold Endlessly curious – reading our guests and adapting approaches to suit the individual and not the masses But most importantly they are humans like us. We don’t believe in a work persona, we avoid hierarchy and we connect with empathy and honesty. Our Hosts don’t shy away from the fundamentals either; they embrace our systems and tech and they are eager to learn and evolve. When guests return home inspired, with stories to tell and discoveries to share, you will have been successful. They will come back more often and tell others. This will be the tale of Locke. In return we offer you a bonus scheme, holidays (including the option to buy more if you want them), a host of wellbeing benefits (Cash Plan, Life Assurance, Long Term Income Protection, an Employee Assistance Programme…), free nights in our properties, awesome recognition schemes, pension (the tax efficient way), company sick pay and further benefits tailored to your individual needs.

We believe in working flexibly – this includes flexibility in work location, working days (including weekends and bank holidays in operations) and working hours. This may be ad hoc or permanent flexibility. Ask your recruiting manager or see our careers page for more information. Beyond the gowns. Beyond the gates. Beyond the guidebook.
