About The Position

Opportunity to lead a 96-room SpringHill Suites by Marriott in Gonzales, Louisiana with direct access to ownership, operational control, and performance-based upside. We are seeking an experienced Hotel General Manager who is looking for a stable, well-supported environment and takes full ownership of results, with a focus on improving operational and financial performance. The property is currently in a stabilization phase with clear performance objectives and strong corporate support. This role offers direct access to ownership with the ability to make decisions quickly and implement changes when needed. Unlike large management companies, you will not operate through layers of corporate bureaucracy—you will have the autonomy to lead while working directly with ownership that understands hotel operations and enables performance-driven decisions. Ownership is actively engaged, providing direct communication and the resources needed to achieve consistent performance.

Solid understanding of hotel financials, labor control, and revenue strategy
