The posting

Overview

Canyon Ranch has been redefining wellness travel and transformative hospitality for more than 45 years. As the global leader in destination wellness, Canyon Ranch inspires lifelong well-being through world-class experts, personalized guidance, and immersive experiences that help guests live healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Now, we are entering an exciting new chapter with the opening of Canyon Ranch Austin in October 2026 — our newest wellness destination nestled in the Texas Hill Country. Designed to connect guests with nature, adventure, restoration, and personal growth, Austin will build upon the legacy established in Tucson, Lenox, and Las Vegas while creating new opportunities for exceptional talent to shape the future of wellness hospitality.

Recognized among the most outstanding hotels in the world by the Michelin Guide 2025, Canyon Ranch offers more than a career — it offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the lives of others every day.

Canyon Ranch Austin is seeking a passionate and service-oriented Front Office Manager to join our pre-opening leadership team. This role will be responsible for building, leading, and inspiring the Front Office operation while creating exceptional arrival, departure, and in-stay experiences that reflect Canyon Ranch's commitment to luxury hospitality and transformational wellness. The Front Office Manager will oversee Front Desk, Guest Services, Experience Planners, PBX, Transportation Coordination, and resort communications functions, ensuring every guest interaction is personalized, seamless, and aligned with Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star standards. During pre-opening, this leader will play a critical role in recruiting talent, developing operating procedures, training colleagues, and preparing the Front Office team for a successful launch. The ideal candidate is a hands-on luxury hospitality leader who thrives in a guest-facing environment and believes that genuine connections and attention to detail create unforgettable experiences.
