Hotel Manager | The Hotel by Levantine Hill

Yarra Valley

Build it. Open it. Make it exceptional.

A rare opportunity exists for an exceptional hotelier to help shape, open and lead The Hotel by Levantine Hill, a new 33-suite luxury hotel within the established Levantine Hill Estate in Coldstream, Yarra Valley.

This is an intimate, highly personalised hotel within a destination built around exceptional wine, food and hospitality.

We are looking for a Hotel Manager who is, above all else, passionate about guests.

Someone who notices the details, anticipates what a guest might need before they ask, is highly visible in the operation and takes enormous personal pride in creating memorable experiences.

The chance

As Hotel Manager, you will lead the Hotel through pre-opening, launch and beyond.

You will help establish the service culture, recruit and develop the team, shape the guest journey and ensure the Hotel connects seamlessly with everything that makes Levantine Hill special.

Luxury here will not be about formality for formality’s sake. It will come from warmth, recognition, anticipation, precision and genuine care.

The guest should experience one Levantine Hill, with accommodation naturally connected to the Estate’s restaurant, cellar door, wines, events and wider experiences.

What you will lead

- An exceptional, high-touch guest experience from pre-arrival through to post-stay

- Pre-opening readiness and launch of the Hotel

- Front Office, Reservations, Housekeeping and hotel presentation standards

- Recruitment, training and leadership of a small, high-calibre team





- Seamless integration of accommodation with Levantine Hill’s wine, dining and Estate experiences

- Contemporary hotel technology and guest-journey systems

- Revenue, budgets and overall hotel performance

About you

You are a hands-on luxury hotelier who genuinely loves looking after people.

You are equally comfortable welcoming a guest, inspecting a suite, coaching a team member, solving a service issue or reviewing tomorrow’s arrivals. You have high standards, strong attention to detail and the instinct to step in personally when something is not right.

Just as importantly, food and wine excite you.

You do not need to be a sommelier, but you should have a genuine interest in great restaurants, wine and destination hospitality, and understand how they can transform a hotel stay into something memorable.

You will enjoy working closely with Levantine Hill’s culinary and wine teams, building your own knowledge and helping your hotel team confidently bring the Estate experience to life for guests.

Why this role?

Few Hotel Manager positions offer the opportunity to create a luxury hotel operation from the ground up within a wine and dining destination of this calibre.

For the right hotelier, this is the chance to build a team, create a service culture and put your signature on a very special guest experience in the Yarra Valley.

If exceptional guest service is what drives you, and the worlds of hotels, restaurants, food and wine are where you feel most at home, we would love to hear from you.
