COMFORT HOTEL RUNWAY - Barception Manager

Comfort Hotel® is all about giving our guests what they need and skipping the unnecessary. We offer great locations, urban design, and selected services that are easy on the wallet, easy to enjoy, and easy on the planet. As the leading budget hotel chain in the Nordic region, Comfort Hotel™ is strengthening its position at Oslo Airport, and we’re looking for an enthusiastic and dynamic Barception Manager to join our team.

What is Barception?
Barception is the vibrant hub of Comfort Hotel Runway—a unique combination of bar and reception where guests can check in, grab a drink, socialize, and purchase snacks and essentials 24/7. It’s the first and last touchpoint for our guests, and we need a manager who can ensure it’s a memorable experience every time.

Exciting times are ahead!
Comfort Hotel Runway is set to undergo a major upgrade and renovation, designed to meet the needs of the modern traveler. As we prepare for this transformation, we need a Barception Manager who can lead this key area, drive in-house sales, and manage our meeting and event operations to ensure an exceptional guest experience.

 

Your role:

As the Barception Manager at Comfort Hotel Runway, you will have full responsibility for the department, including operating the M&E facilities. This includes recruitment for the department, training and motivating your team. In this role, you will be in charge of dividing your time working both administratively and operationally, always closely with your team. The position is a full-time, and you have the responsibility for reaching the department goals. 

Who You Are:

You’re someone who’s always on top of things, with a strong network. You’re a joy-spreader with a contagious laugh, and speaking of contagious, we want your energy to inspire both our guests and your fellow team members. You have a relaxed and easy going style, yet you maintain a professional at all times. You’re a natural when it comes to socializing and delivering top-notch service. You’re reliable, taking full responsibility for achieving goals and results. You’re the friend everyone calls in an emergency or when they need the perfect spot for a Tinder date dinner.

You are reliable and thrive when the hotel is busy. Reaching your goals motivates you and you identify as someone who has winning spirit. You will be part of the management team at the hotel and will in your role have great possibilities of setting the standard for what an airport hotel can be. Knowledge of Norwegian and English is required, and proficiency in other languages is a plus. At Comfort, we value diversity and ensure that everyone—guests and employees alike—feels welcome. We have room for all!

If you’re ready to lead our Barception, drive in-house sales, and ensure our meetings and events run seamlessly, we’d love to hear from you! 

Join us in creating a space where guests can relax, connect, and enjoy everything Comfort Hotel Runway has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you to our team!

Start Date: January 1, 2025 (or as agreed).
