Room to Grow

We are known as the fastest growing brand in the history of the lodging industry (we opened 140 locations in 36 months). Our concept is a cross between a hotel and an apartment- we only rent rooms by the week. Our product is in high demand by business travelers and those who life’s circumstances cause them to need an extended stay hotel. Most locations have occupancy rates 20-25% greater than competitors.

As the largest economy extended stay lodging franchise in the U.S. we currently operate over 180 hotels in more than 30 states. By December 2016 we have plans to open another 125 locations, with goals to have 1,000 locations nationwide. Our property management company is ranked in the top 20 largest company owned PMCs with locations throughout the U.S.

 
We seek Area Manager Trainees (AMT) based throughout the US with prior multi unit management, maintenance, or sales background.  Prior multi-unit restaurant, property management, convenience store or retail operations are required. Critical skills include management selection and training, cost control, local store marketing, and a commitment to quality. This is a fast track training program. Selected candidates may need to be willing to relocate within a 24 month period.
The AMT reports to the Regional Vice President and serves in a special role traveling 90% of the time to problem properties located from Utah to Virginia. You will be measured on your ability to quickly assess the reasons for the poor quality, low occupancy, and low guest satisfaction, and then implement plans to quickly return the property to revenue growth and profitability.

Your primary focus is managing the growth of our revenue and profit in the market. AMTs work a 60 hour work week. Some AMT's are required to travel during training others less so, it depends upon your location and our needs. We pay all travel expenses, but expect to be away from home 3-6 weeks at a time. Expect to be in training for 9-12 months before final assignment.  Our culture is performance based…we work hard and we play hard, but we respect the balance between personal life and work life, offering truly equal opportunity and advancement based on merit. We operate with fewer but better people.
If working in a high performance, rapidly growing, company who takes care of their employees so that they will take care of the customer sounds like a place you would like to work don't let this opportunity pass you by. EOE
