Hotel Operations Manager (m/f/d) - New Opening

At Ruby, your personality really matters, your time really matters, and we strongly believe we groove way better together. At Ruby, we keep breaking new ground.

Hey Sunshine,

You think travelling is more than just the next summer holiday, but the feeling of being at home anywhere in the world? That your workplace should be a place with personality and soul, where new ideas come to life? Then you are the missing olive in our Martini, the missing melody in our music and the heartbeat of our Ruby Marseille.

Our Ruby Lilou is all about contrasts: lavender calm meets bold street art, seaside ease meets punkish rebellion. Inspired by Marseille’s "La Belle Re-Belle” spirit, we’ve blended Provence’s soft colours and slow lifestyle with the city’s raw, creative edge – a place made to both relax and rebel. With 237 rooms and a spacious rooftop terrace above Boulevard des Dames, Ruby Lilou sits at the heart of it all. Between the old port, La Joliette’s business buzz and the winding lanes of Le Panier, Marseille’s cultural soul is right on your doorstep.

We are a fast-growing hospitality group with existing hotels and workspaces in some of Europe's most exciting locations and many more projects under construction. We break new ground with our Lean Luxury philosophy, creating a contemporary and affordable form of luxury.
