Operations Manager II (General Manager), Kasa Little Italy

About Kasa

Kasa is the leading tech-enabled hotel and apartment hotel brand and manager. Kasa has built a hospitality operating system that fundamentally improves the profitability of hospitality assets while delivering a high quality, digitally forward experience to guests. We partner with owners of multifamily and boutique hospitality properties to deliver stylish, professionally managed accommodations to business and leisure travelers alike. We took the best that hotels and short-term rentals had to offer and created a new class of hospitality that is well-priced, reliable, and offers a large selection of great locations.

Unlike traditional hotel operators, we prioritize automation, AI-driven pricing, and data-driven decision-making to optimize revenue and improve guest experiences.

Like many operations roles, there is no ‘typical day'. Your role will involve a wide range of activities tending to the Kasa property in your care.

Managing, prioritizing, and carrying out on-site tasks is crucial for this role.

You will routinely assess units and the overall building for condition and upkeep, as well as assist guests and residents with their needs as they arise. This includes replacing broken items, coordinating with our housekeeping partners to maintain a high level of building cleanliness, and searching for potential areas for improvement. You'll need to take the initiative to identify and execute building improvements while being financially prudent. An important component of the role will be to maintain proper logs and certifications to keep the building in compliance.

During emergencies, you will be the primary party responsible for providing support for lockouts, last-minute requests, and assisting with other guest issues. As our eyes and ears on the ground, you will also work with our Trust and Safety team to implement on-site security protocols and be present at the property to personally oversee the departure of problematic guests.

Working closely with other teams at Kasa and utilizing Kasa's communications and scheduling tools will be crucial to coordinating on-the-ground operations. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with California Portfolio Operations to share best practices and support each other!
