Motel Management Couple

Mossman QLD & Port Douglas QLD Motels

Looking for a Challenge? Help Us Build Something Better.

We are a privately owned hospitality group operating a growing portfolio of regional Queensland motels. As we continue expanding through acquisitions, we're looking for experienced, hands-on Motel Management Couples who enjoy taking on a challenge and making a real difference.

Let's be upfront—we don't operate luxury 4 or 5-star resorts. Some of our motels require improvement, stronger operational systems, and managers who aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves.

If you're the type of couple who enjoys turning an underperforming property into one that guests love, takes pride in improving standards, and wants to leave a lasting impact, we'd love to hear from you.

This chance may suit experienced motel managers, hospitality professionals, or relief management couples seeking ongoing placements or long-term opportunities.

The Role

You will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of one of our Queensland motels, ensuring guests receive friendly service while continuously improving the presentation, performance and reputation of the property.

This is a genuine hands-on management role where no two days are the same.

Front Office & Administration

- Welcoming guests and managing check-in/check-out

- Managing reservations and online travel agent (OTA) platforms

- Using RMS or similar booking systems

- Processing payments and daily reconciliations

- Basic bookkeeping and financial reporting

- Monitoring occupancy and business performance

- Responding professionally to guest feedback and online reviews

- Managing administration and compliance requirements

- Leading and supporting motel staff where applicable

Operations & Property Presentation

- General grounds,



gardens and pool upkeep

- Performing minor maintenance and repairs

- Coordinating trades where necessary

- Stock ordering and inventory management

As managers, there may also be occasions where you assist with late arrivals, guest issues, or unexpected operational matters outside normal business hours.

About You

We're looking for couples who:

- Have previous motel, accommodation or hospitality management experience

- Are confident using RMS or similar booking systems

- Have sound financial and administrative skills

- Enjoy practical maintenance and problem-solving

- Take pride in presenting a clean, welcoming property

- Deliver exceptional customer service

- Are self-motivated, organised and reliable

- Enjoy improving businesses rather than simply maintaining them

- Can work independently and make decisions with confidence

- Are adaptable, resilient and willing to embrace regional living

- Want to be part of a growing hospitality group where your efforts genuinely make a difference

Police clearances and drug screening may be required.

Applicants must hold their own ABN or ACN.

You are a power couple and have worked together in motel couple management building together!

What We Offer

- On-site accommodation during your placement

- Ongoing support from our National Operations Team

- Opportunities for ongoing relief work or permanent placement

- The chance to grow with an expanding hospitality group

- The satisfaction of transforming motels and creating memorable guest experiences

- A role where your hard work will be recognised and valued
