HEAD OF FINANCE – EUROPE – LONDON HQ

The Head of Finance – Europe is a hands on position responsible for the financial support of Locke’s European hotel operations providing financial reporting, planning & analysis. Reporting into the VP – Finance, the role is critical to supporting our hotel operators and enabling financial performance. This is a strategic leadership role for someone with hotels experience who enjoys working in high performing teams. This role is based at our London Bridge office 5 days per week.

THE STAGE IS SET

The stage is set for something different. We don’t run conventional hotels - we create spaces with character and intent.

What began as a small UK aparthotel portfolio has grown into a design-led European collection. As we evolve our brand, we’re creating spaces that feel contemporary, distinctive, and full of atmosphere. Locke leads with bold expression, while Cove by Locke offers a quieter, more refined take.

Guests come to rest, work, or escape. Comfort is a given, but we aim to create memorable moments and bring back the sense of mood hospitality often lost.

This is our backdrop. Step on stage and play your part.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

We’re here to rethink what a modern lifestyle hotel can be. That takes pace, creativity, and people who enjoy working with purpose.

If you’re comfortable with change, motivated by ideas, and focused on crafting meaningful guest experiences, you’ll do well here. We value individuals who can hold a vision, appreciate atmosphere, and want their work to have impact.

Skills can be taught. Mindset can’t. There’s no single template for success here - just the right approach and willingness to grow.
