About the role

Original posting from Ruby Hotels via Greenhouse

At Ruby, your personality really matters, your time really matters, and we strongly believe we groove way better together. At Ruby, we keep breaking new ground.

Hey Sunshine,

You think travelling is more than just the next summer holiday, but the feeling of being at home anywhere in the world? That your workplace should be a place with personality and soul, where new ideas come to life? Then you are the missing olive in our Martini, the missing melody in our music, and the heartbeat of our Ruby Dora.

Our Ruby Dora, with her 181 rooms, is set in the legendary Corvin Palace on one of Budapest’s grand boulevards, right between Keleti station and the historic old town. From the glamour of the roaring 1920s to today’s buzzing café and bar culture, Budapest has always known how to keep the good times rolling. Inspired by the building’s history and by Hungarian sculptor Szigfrid Pongrácz’s four sculptures of Pandora crowning the palace, a symbol that even after turbulent times hope always finds its way back into the world, we created a space that reflects the city’s enduring spirit and love for lively gatherings. With the Danube, the historic centre and countless cafés just a short stroll away, Ruby Dora places you right where Budapest comes alive.

We are a fast-growing hospitality group with existing hotels and workspaces in some of Europe's most exciting locations and many more projects under construction. We break new ground with our Lean Luxury philosophy, creating a contemporary and affordable form of luxury.

The role is set to start in January, just in time for the opening in February. First Interviews are planned for November.
