Outpost Hostel | Coron, Palawan

Live where people vacation. Lead a team that creates unforgettable experiences.

Outpost Hostel is looking for a hands-on leader to oversee the daily operations of our Coron property.

This isn't a desk job.

You'll spend your day walking the property, coaching supervisors, solving operational problems before guests notice them, and ensuring every department works together to deliver an exceptional guest experience.

If you're the type of leader who enjoys being on the floor rather than behind a computer, we'd love to meet you.

• Ensure departments communicate and work together seamlessly.

• Conduct daily quality inspections of rooms and public areas.
• Ensure cleanliness, maintenance, safety, and service standards are consistently met.
• Monitor occupancy, revenue, inventory, and operating costs.
• Coordinate repairs, purchasing, and supplier concerns.
• Build a positive, accountable, and service-focused team culture.

We're Looking For Someone Who

• Has at least 3 years of leadership experience in hospitality.
• Has experience in a hotel, hostel, resort, or similar property.
• Is confident leading multiple departments.
• Can coach people instead of simply giving instructions.
• Is highly organized and proactive.
• Can make sound decisions under pressure.
• Is comfortable using hotel systems, Microsoft Office, and operational reports.
• Is willing to relocate and live in Coron, Palawan.
