We're currently recruiting in our Cork City Centre Premier Inn. Working 25 hours per week, paying up to €14.25 per hour.
Hotel Duty Manager – Cork City Centre Premier Inn
 
This isn’t a desk job.
You’ll spend your shift helping guests, leading your team and keeping the hotel running smoothly.
One moment you might be helping reception with a guest query. The next, you could be supporting housekeeping, checking rooms, helping during a busy breakfast service or briefing the team before the next rush.
If you enjoy leading from the front, solving problems and making things happen, this could be your next step.
And if you’d like to become a Hotel Manager one day, this is a brilliant place to start.
 
Pay, hours and location
Pay: Up to €14.25 per hour
Contract: Fixed Term Contract until 28/02/2027 – we don’t do zero-hours contracts.
Hours: 25 guaranteed hours per week.
Location: 11 Morrison's Quay, Centre, Cork, T12 PF78, Ireland
Shifts: Includes evenings, weekends and busy guest periods.
 
What you’ll do
As Duty Manager, you’ll help lead the hotel during your shift. You’ll work across reception, housekeeping and the restaurant to make sure our guests have a great stay and your team has everything they need. You’ll:
Lead shifts across the hotel and deliver clear pre-shift briefings
Support and coach team members throughout the day
Help guests with questions and sort out problems
Jump in to support different teams, from reception to the restaurant
Spot issues early and put them right

You don’t need hotel experience

You may have worked as a:
Team Leader
Supervisor

Any role where you’ve been responsible for leading people in a busy customer-facing environment would suit us.
What matters most is that you’re confident making decisions, enjoy helping people and stay calm when things get busy.
