Role Overview:
We are looking for a dynamic, data-driven and analytical manager who is passionate about delivering a best-in-class guest experience. The role will work as part of a cross functional sales and marketing team, working closely with the operational teams and reporting to the Marketing Director.
You will have detailed experience in reservations platforms, (ideally Seven Rooms), be able to set up, utilise and harness all functionality appropriate to each brand to maximise covers. You will have a strategic eye, be able to analyse performance and work with multiple stakeholders to proactively offer solutions to improve efficiency, revenue generation and guest experience. You will work closely with the marketing and ops teams on guest recognition and lead on all reservations reporting, forecasting, guest feedback and covers. A knowledge of digital would be helpful and an ability to analyse guest data in a CRM platform.
You should have excellent communication and people skills and a passion for delivering genuine and thoughtful hospitality. You will be required to work very closely with all reception managers and hosts at each restaurant, motivating and inspiring each team to deliver a warm welcome and a seamless guest journey. You will be responsible for coaching all front of house teams to fully maximise Seven Rooms in service and ensure all are pulling to our guest recognition programme. This role will therefore encompass operational floor shifts as well as time at the Support Office.
The Group Reservations Manager/ Head of Reservations will work closely with the senior operational teams for each brand and the wider group marketing and events team. You should be a self-starter, able to deliver high quality work, with excellent attention to detail, and a team player who enjoys exceeding expectations.
