Drive results. Grow with us.** In 1978, two family members bought a bankrupt hotel in Lumberton, North Carolina, and built something lasting. Today Shamin Hotels is the largest hotel owner and operator in Virginia, with more than 70 hotels across multiple states. We’re still growing, and we need a Regional Director of Operations who can help write our next chapter. This role is for an operator who knows that great hotels are built by great people, and who can move a P&L as confidently as they can coach a General Manager. #### Why this role is different You’ve run hotels in more than one world. You know the polish and complexity of **full-service** operations, and you’ve delivered results in **select-service and extended-stay** hotels, where lean teams and sharp execution make the difference. You’ve done it with the brands that set the standard: **Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, and IHG**. Here, you’ll use all of it. Based in Richmond, you’ll lead a diverse group of properties. You’ll be the person our General Managers call for guidance, the leader our corporate team relies on for regional insight, and a steady presence when things get hard. #### What you’ll do - **Lead the region.** Oversee day-to-day operations across multiple hotels and make sure every guest has a consistently great stay, whatever the brand or segment. - **Own the numbers.** Read the financials, build budgets with your GMs, and use RevPAR, ADR, GOP, and occupancy to find opportunities others miss. - **Develop leaders.** Coach and mentor General Managers and property leadership teams. Partner with HR to recruit, train, and keep top talent. - **Champion the guest.** Make sure every property meets or exceeds brand and service standards, and turn guest feedback into real improvement. - **Protect what we’ve built.** Run property visits, audits, and inspections that keep hotels compliant, safe, and on-brand. - **Think big picture.** Work with Sales, Marketing, and Revenue Management to win in each market, and help align regional strategy with company goals. - **Lead in a crisis.** Guide emergency preparedness and response, and spot risks before they become problems. #### What you bring - 8–10+ years of hotel management experience, including multi-property oversight - A proven record in **both full-service and select-service/extended-stay** hotels - Deep experience with **Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, and IHG** brand standards and systems - Strong financial skills and experience managing P&Ls across several properties - A leadership style that motivates teams, builds accountability, and creates a culture people want to stay in - Comfort with PMS, RMS, and Microsoft Office, plus the communication skills to present well to any audience - A bachelor’s degree in Hospitality, Business, or a related field (master’s preferred) - Willingness to travel often within the region and be available when your hotels need you #### What’s in it for you - **Competitive pay**, salaried and paid bi-weekly - **Full benefits:** health, dental, vision, accident, short- and long-term disability, and even pet insurance - **401(k) with company match** - **Paid time off and paid holidays** - **Perks:** discounts at our branded hotels, plus Shamin Perk savings on tickets, rental cars, attractions, footwear, and gym memberships - **Room to grow:** with 70+ hotels and more on the way, we’re proud to promote from within. Your potential is limited only by your ambition. #### Ready to lead with us? If you’re an operator who can move easily between a bustling full-service hotel and a high-performing extended-stay property, we’d love to meet you. **Apply today** and help shape the future of Virginia’s largest hotel company. *Shamin Hotels is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds.
