At Nest Acre Stays, we’re not just another serviced accommodation company — we’re a fast-growing, people-first business that truly values our team as much as our guests. We're building something special in the North East: flexible, high-quality stays for contractors, families, and re-locators — all delivered with heart, hustle, and local know-how.

Now, we’re looking for an Operations/General Manager to join our mission and help shape our next chapter of growth.

Your Role

As our Operations Manager, you'll take the reins on the day-to-day running of our serviced accommodation business. This is a hands-on, people-focused role with a strategic edge — perfect for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and loves to make things work smarter.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Overseeing operations across multiple properties — from guest experience to housekeeping to maintenance.

• Managing staff and contractors, ensuring everyone is aligned, supported, and delivering high standards.

• Driving efficiency through smart systems, processes, and tools.

• Maximising occupancy through savvy calendar management, direct bookings, and client relationships.

• Supporting growth, improving revenue, and contributing to wider business strategy.

• Being the go-to problem-solver, whether that’s guest issues, system hiccups, or unexpected challenges.

Who You Are

You’ve got a natural knack for getting things done, keeping people motivated, and spotting opportunities to improve.

We’re looking for someone with:

• Previous experience in a managerial or operations role, ideally within hospitality, property, or serviced accommodation.

• Customer-first mindset with a strong background in service.

• Strong organisation and planning skills — you love a to-do list and know how to prioritise.

• Confidence with budgets and financial planning.

• Strategic thinking and sound decision-making skills.

• SEO or marketing know-how (a bonus!) to help support direct bookings.

• Resilience — you stay calm under pressure and take challenges in your stride.

• Tech-savviness — comfortable with operational software, booking platforms, and communication tools.

• Full Drivers Licence with your own vechicle

Why Join Us?

• People-first culture – We value you as much as our guests.

• Real growth opportunities – We’re expanding fast and you’ll grow with us.

• Flexible hybrid working – Work from home and our local office (3–4 days a week).

• Purpose-driven impact – Help people in transition find comfort, safety, and care.

• Perks – Performance bonus, holidays, training, and a team that’s got your back.

If you’re ready to take the lead in a business that’s personal, ambitious, and anything but ordinary — we’d love to hear from you.
