Full job description

General Manager — The Retreat at Elcot Park

Some places are easy to fall in love with.
The Retreat at Elcot Park is one of them.

Set within beautiful Berkshire countryside, The Retreat is a place where things feel considered without ever feeling overthought — a hotel with a relaxed rhythm, understated style, and a genuine sense of welcome. It’s somewhere guests come to switch off, settle in, and stay a little longer than planned.

Due to an internal promotion, we’re now looking for a General Manager to lead it — someone who enjoys the natural pace of a busy hotel resort operation, who notices the detail, and who knows how to create something that feels both effortless and exactly as it should. This role will report into the Operations Director (who used to be The Retreat's General Manager)- so there is great continuity in place!

The Role (or, what your days might look like)

No two days are quite the same — and that’s very much part of the appeal.

You might begin the morning walking the hotel, taking it all in with fresh eyes. By midday, you’re working with your team to shape ideas and plans that move things forward. And by evening, you’re with guests — listening, on the floor, and ensuring everything feels just right.

Along the way, you will:

Lead and support a team of Heads of Department — setting the tone, offering clarity, and keeping everyone moving together
Take ownership of the hotel’s commercial performance, with a steady, thoughtful approach to growth
Ensure the guest experience feels natural — warm, polished, and never overdone
Build a team culture people want to be part of — and choose to stay in
Balance the bigger picture with the smallest details — because both matter equally
Work closely with our Managing Partner and Central Support Team

About You

You’re experienced, certainly — but more importantly, you’re considered in how you lead.

You’ve spent at least five years in a senior operational role within a quality hotel or inn with rooms. This could be your first GM role, or you may have led a smaller hotel before.
You’re calm when it’s busy, organised when it’s complex, and consistent throughout
You understand the numbers — but never at the expense of people
You notice the small details (and know they’re rarely small)
You lead in a way that feels natural, never forced
You take pride in creating something that feels… just right

What We Offer

We think carefully about the experience of working with us, too.

Competitive salary (discussed on application), Private Healthcare and Pension
General Manager bonus scheme
28 days’ holiday (including Bank Holidays), plus your birthday off
Ongoing training and clear opportunities to grow — including involvement in our new Learning & Comms platform, powered by All Gravy
The opportunity to move across the wider Signet Collection
Discounted stays and dining for you, your family and friends
Stream — access up to 40% of your pay before pay day, and save directly from your salary
A comprehensive Wellbeing Hub, powered by Hospitality Action — including 24/7 support, fitness, nutrition and counselling
Referral bonuses of up to £1,000
Long Service Awards — from memorable dinners to theatre experiences and stays across the collection
Complimentary meals on shift
Supplier trips, workshops and industry experiences

A Few Final Words

We don’t do overly formal or overly fussy — but we care deeply about how things feel.

At The Signet Collection, hospitality is warm, confident, and quietly detailed. We’re looking for someone who brings that same balance — someone who knows when to step in, when to step back, and how to bring it all together.

Join Us

If this feels like the sort of place — and role — where you could do your best work, we’d love to hear from you.

Come and lead The Retreat at Elcot Park.
It’s a very lovely place to be.
