    We are seeking an experienced and passionate Front Office Manager to lead the guest experience at one of East Africa's most acclaimed luxury retreats. As a Relais & Châteaux member property, Zanzibar White Sand Luxury Villas & Spa upholds the highest standards of personalised service — from the moment a guest arrives to the moment they depart.

Experience in a luxury resort or boutique five-star environment is essential; familiarity with East African or Indian Ocean destinations is a distinct advantage.

    - Strong English
    - French is a big plus

    • Complimentary single accommodation within the resort
