MBR is hiring an Assistant General Manager to support the General Manager in overseeing all aspects of resort operations — guest experience, front office, housekeeping, maintenance coordination, staff supervision, and administrative operations. This is a leadership role suited to someone who thrives in a fast-paced, guest-facing environment and wants real ownership over how a property runs.

 

What You'll Do

  • Act as the primary on-property leader in the General Manager's absence, with full authority to resolve operational and guest issues
  • Oversee daily operations across front desk, housekeeping, and grounds/maintenance to ensure smooth, consistent guest experiences
  • Supervise, schedule, and support front-line staff; assist with hiring, onboarding, and performance management
  • Handle escalated guest concerns and service recovery with sound judgment and a calm, solutions-first approach
  • Support budgeting, payroll administration, and expense tracking in coordination with the General Manager
  • Monitor and help maintain quality, safety, and brand standards across all unit types (Airstreams, Surf Bungalows, cabins, Forest Camping, Spartan Imperial Mansion)
  • Assist with vendor and contractor coordination for maintenance, supplies, and property upkeep
  • Contribute to marketing, promotions, and local partnership initiatives as needed
  • Step into General Manager responsibilities during absences, vacations, or peak-season support periods

 

Why Join MBR

  • Work in one of the most beautiful coastal settings on Vancouver Island
  • A close-knit, hands-on team environment with real decision-making responsibility
  • Free Staff accommodation
  • Phone Allowance
  • Medical/Dental Benefits

 

Closing Date for Applications is November 17th, 2026

Qualifications 

 

What You Bring

  • 2+ years of supervisory or management experience in hospitality, resort, or short-term accommodation operations
  • Strong working knowledge of front office and property management systems (Cloudbeds experience an asset)
  • Demonstrated ability to lead a team, resolve conflict, and stay composed under pressure
  • Comfort with hands-on, varied work — this role moves between front desk, admin, and property walk-throughs
  • Availability for flexible scheduling, including weekends, holidays, and peak summer season
  • Valid BC driver's licence considered an asset
  • A genuine interest in the Tofino community and coastal, outdoor lifestyle

 

Required

  • 2+ years of supervisory or management experience in hospitality, resort, or accommodations operations
  • Strong communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to work flexible hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays
  • Proficiency with property management systems (Cloudbeds experience preferred)

 

Preferred

  • Post-secondary education in hospitality, tourism, or business management
  • Experience with budgeting, payroll, or basic financial reporting
  • Valid BC driver's licence
  • Familiarity with the Tofino/Pacific Rim region
