Duty Manager

Visa sponsorship

Hospitality · Christchurch, New Zealand · Full-Time · $25 - $35/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored

A calm head on a busy floor is what this Duty Manager role calls for. An established hospitality business near Christchurch, New Zealand, with a hotel, beer garden and restaurant in a coastal town, is appointing a permanent, full-time Duty Manager to move between its venues.

Answering to the venue manager and general manager, you would take charge of each shift, guide the service staff and look after people and reservations. The position also carries licensing responsibility under the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012, and a clear expectation that every visitor and colleague finds the venues gracious, secure and polished. This can be a sponsorship role for the right candidate, which may interest hospitality leaders in Dubai, Doha, Riyadh or Muscat weighing a considered career step.

Your next move starts with an English CV that reads well to a New Zealand hiring manager: the premium venues you have supervised, the service standards you upheld and your approach to alcohol compliance. Refine a hotel duty manager CV with Build AI CV.
