The Role:

We are looking for the founding General Manager to lead the pre-opening and transition into operation of Bonmont Resort. This is an opportunity to join the project at a defining stage and help turn its vision into a fully integrated, high-performing resort operation. The role combines strategic perspective with a highly practical, hands-on approach and requires the confidence to represent the project with ownership, brand partners and key stakeholders.

• Coordinate the overall pre-opening plan and the transition into operations, ensuring clear priorities, ownership and decision-making across the project.
• Translate the project vision into an integrated operating model covering the hotel, golf and complementary facilities.
• Define, together with ownership and the Executive Committee, the organisational structure, leadership model and staffing priorities.
• Establish the service philosophy, operating standards and guest experience principles for an international premium destination.
• Coordinate operational readiness across departments, systems, processes, policies and opening plans.
• Build and lead a high-performing Executive Committee and create a consistent leadership culture across the resort.
• Ensure alignment between operational readiness, financial performance, commercial priorities and the opening timeline.
• Represent Bonmont Resort with ownership, brand partners, advisors, authorities, local stakeholders and other key partners.

What we are looking for:

• Demonstrated experience leading an international hotel, resort or comparable hospitality operation.
• Experience in hotel openings, pre-openings, repositionings or complex hospitality projects.
• Proven ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and manage stakeholders with different priorities.
• Strong commercial and financial orientation, combined with operational rigour and attention to detail.
• Ability to build teams, establish standards and make sound decisions in an evolving environment.
• Professional fluency in English; Spanish or other relevant languages would be an advantage.
• Willingness to be based in Tarragona and actively involved in the pre-opening phase.

Requirements:

Particularly valued:

• Experience in integrated hotel-and-golf resorts, golf destinations or premium leisure projects.
• Experience opening a resort with several complementary business units or facilities.
• Knowledge of international source markets and premium guest expectations.
• Experience representing a project with ownership, brand partners and senior external stakeholders.

Why this opportunity:

You will join Bonmont before it opens and help shape the operation, the team and the guest experience from the ground up. The role offers the scope and influence of a founding leadership position in a new international resort destination.
