Job Description
Property Manager – Zostel
At Zostel, a Property Manager isn’t just running a building — they’re running an experience. You’ll be responsible for the day-to-day operations of a Zostel, leading the on-ground team, taking ownership of guest experience, and ensuring the property runs smoothly as a business.
This role is for someone who’s hands-on, people-first, and operationally sharp. You’ll be based at the property, living the Zostel life, solving real problems, and making sure both guests and the business thrive.
What This Role Demands
- You’re comfortable being on the floor, not behind a desk.
- You enjoy rapid-paced environments and stay calm under pressure.
- You genuinely enjoy hosting people and owning guest experiences end-to-end.
- You understand that hospitality is both heart and numbers — service quality and business performance matter equally.
- You’re organised, proactive, and take responsibility instead of waiting for instructions.
What You Will Do
-
Own the property’s daily operations — front desk, housekeeping, café/F&B; (if applicable), maintenance, and in-house atmosphere.
- Lead and manage the on-ground team, ensuring everyone knows their role and delivers consistently.
- Take complete ownership of guest issues — you handle problems, resolve complaints, and create solutions yourself.
- Ensure the hostel is clean, safe, functional, and guest-ready at all times.
- Track occupancy, revenue, expenses, and guest feedback, working towards better ratings and performance.
- Ensure cash handling, systems (PMS/PM tools), and reporting are accurate and up to date.
- Maintain Zostel’s brand vibe in social spaces while ensuring operational discipline.
- Coordinate closely with the Franchise Partner and Central Operations Team.
- Ensure compliance with all Zostel SOPs, hygiene, safety, and policy standards.
Big Plus If You Have Experience In
- Using computers, software, and online tools confidently
- eZee or other booking / property management platforms
- Staff management and scheduling
- Housekeeping operations and inventory management
- Handling guest escalations and complaints
- Guest reviews, audits, and basic maintenance coordination
- Café or F&B; operations
- Basic accounts or cash handling
Who You Are
- You must have 2+ years of experience in hospitality, hostels, hotels, or service roles.
- You’re a people leader who enjoys managing teams and guests alike.
- You’re comfortable working 10+ hours on property, especially during peak days.
- You like solving problems, making quick decisions, and taking ownership.
- You’re interested in travel, culture, local experiences, and building community.
- You’re not afraid to get your hands dirty — because sometimes, that’s what the job needs.
Pay & Important Details
-
Pay Package: ₹23,000 – ₹35,000 per month, based on property and experience.
- You’ll be employed by the Zostel Franchise Partner, not the Central Team.
- This is a live-in, on-property role, often in remote or travel destinations.
- It’s demanding, dynamic, and deeply rewarding — not a desk job.
