Purpose of the Role

The Camp Manager serves as the right hand to the Lodge Manager, playing a vital role in delivering a seamless, intuitive guest experience while ensuring front-of-house operations are flawlessly orchestrated.

  • Monitor, control and drive shop sales, pricing, and stock control.
  • Maintain full responsibility for the retail stock in the store including costs, stores, losses, discrepancies and expired stock items.
  • Maintain and uphold Safari Lodge's service standards and SOPs across the front-of-house operation, ensuring consistency and guest trust.

  • Complete guest incident reports and ensure correct escalation and follow-up.
  • Oversee leave approval and rostering for the Guest Relations and Porters team.
  • Proficient use of ResRequest and TallOrder systems to ensure operational accuracy and guest record integrity.
  • Leadership & Culture

  • Actively manage radio communications to stay informed of guest movements and team coordination.
  • Cultivate morale and support across departments by being present, adaptable, and proactive.
  • Lead with quiet confidence, warmth, and a hospitality philosophy centred on elegance, presence, and intentionality.
  • Ensure safety awareness and support emergency procedures, responding calmly and efficiently when required.
  • Schedule & Structure

  • Works primarily the day shift (07h30–16h30), with evening returns for dinner hosting as needed.
  • Lives on site and follows a 6-week on / 2-week off rotation.
  • Functions as the Lodge Manager's second-in-command, with primary ownership of front-of-house guest operations and service rhythm.
  • REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

  • Minimum 3–5 years’ experience in a luxury lodge, boutique hotel, or five-star hospitality setting.
  • Proven track record in front-of-house operations, guest services, and hosting at a high level.
  • Deep understanding of luxury guest expectations, with an ability to anticipate needs and exceed them discreetly.
  • Demonstrated ability to handle guest feedback and complaints with grace, tact, and professionalism.
  • Skilled in personalised hosting, showing emotional intelligence and authentic presence in guest interactions.
  • Experience in leading small, multi-disciplinary teams, ideally within a remote lodge setting.
  • Strong communicator who can lead daily briefings, ensure interdepartmental alignment, and foster a culture of excellence and accountability.
  • Able to motivate and mentor junior staff, especially in guest relations roles.
  • Proficient in hospitality systems such as ResRequest (PMS) and TallOrder (POS), or similar platforms.
  • Strong organisational skills with experience in rostering, leave scheduling, and incident reporting.
  • Comfortable making operational decisions independently, especially when acting as Manager on Duty or in the Lodge Manager’s absence.
  • MAXIMIZING YOUR IMPACT AS A MEMBER OF THE MORE FAMILY COLLECTION
