MEA SPAC
Lead the housekeeping operations at one of the Sunshine Coast’s most well-known resort and conference destinations, set within relaxed coastal surrounds and centred around a unique lagoon-style setting. With 373 rooms, extensive leisure facilities and a purpose-built conference centre, the resort caters to both high-volume corporate events and leisure guests year-round.
We are entering an exciting new chapter, with a $20 million refurbishment planned across guest rooms and key hotel spaces. This is a rare opportunity to lead through transformation—shaping elevated housekeeping standards, guiding a large team through change, and helping define the next stage of the guest experience.
As part of the global Accor network, you’ll join a culture that values collaboration, accountability and pride in delivering consistent, high-quality guest experiences in a fast-paced resort environment.
This is a hands-on leadership role where you will take ownership of the housekeeping operation across guest rooms, public areas and laundry services. You will lead a large and diverse team, ensuring consistent presentation standards, strong productivity, and a seamless guest experience across a high-volume resort environment.
You’ll be actively involved in day-to-day operations while also driving team performance, quality standards and continuous improvement—particularly throughout the ongoing refurbishment period.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and drive daily housekeeping operations across rooms, public areas and laundry services
- Manage, develop and support a large housekeeping team to deliver consistent, high-quality standards

- Oversee in-house laundry operations, ensuring efficiency, quality and turnaround standards are met
- Conduct regular quality inspections and ensure compliance with brand and presentation standards
- Work closely with Front Office, Maintenance and other departments to ensure smooth daily operations
- Manage recruitment, onboarding and ongoing training of team members
- Respond to guest feedback and drive continuous improvement initiatives
- Support the delivery of refurbishment works while maintaining guest experience standards
- Proven experience in a housekeeping leadership role within hotels, resorts or high-volume accommodation environments
- Strong hands-on leadership style with the ability to motivate, coach and develop teams
- Excellent attention to detail with a strong commitment to presentation and quality standards
- Solid organisational skills with experience managing rosters, productivity and operational demands
- Commercial awareness and understanding of labour and operational cost control
- Confident communicator with a collaborative, solutions-focused approach
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with competing priorities
- Flexibility to work a rotating roster, including weekends and public holidays
