Position Overview & Specifications
Be part of the family...
We’re a family business through and through – family owned, family run, with a warm family welcome for guests and team alike. Our seven hotels are unique and set in three stunning Scottish locations. Some are big, some are small but all offer good food drink, great beds and a ton of things to do.
Crieff Hydro Hotel
Pretty much in the centre of Scotland, we’re set in a 900acre estate in stunning Perthshire. Home from home, we’ve been welcoming generations of families for 150 years. We have 215 hotel bedrooms, 55 self-catering lodges, six restaurants and over 60 onsite activities– there really is something for everyone!
About the role

You’ll be a self- starter, able to think on your feet and remain calm under pressure. As a strong communicator, you’ll quickly build positive working relationships with the team and customers. You’ll show leadership skills, and have an ambition to develop a career in the outdoor activity field. Experience in a minimum of two of the following is essential - water sports, high/low ropes, quad biking, off-road driving, Segway’s, air rifle shooting and event management.
What we need from you:
- Passion – for helping guests to have fun and make memories.
- Willingness – a desire to learn and work in hospitality
- Team focus – there are no egos here, just hard-working people who love creating memorable experiences for every guest
- Ideas and openness – we’re up for doing things differently and will try (almost) everything once
- Fun and easy to talk to – we’re looking for personality, not a corporate clone
- Flexibility – supporting your team to deliver great a great experience.
What you’ll get from us
- The chance to work in a friendly, forward thinking company with investment as a priority.
