bout the job

Founded in 2010, we’re an independently owned and operated lifestyle brand with 12 hotels & 14 restaurants across Hong Kong, Australia, and Indonesia. Over the years we’ve grown exponentially, both in size and confidence. But our attitude towards our guests and our passion for what Ovolo stands for remains as strong as ever. We’ve never been afraid to be ourselves, to zig when the others zag, to be creative and spontaneous, and to stand out from the crowd. It’s what we’re famous for. It’s what we love.

Our mission is to share happiness. With bright eyes and even brighter minds, we create the kind of good vibrations that carry far and wide. Across continents and overseas. Throughout hotel lobbies, and beyond. It’s everywhere you look. Places filled with a special kind of sparkle that keeps people coming back for more.

• And want to know what makes Ovolo more special, more unique, and more original than all the rest? Our people. Just the way they are.
• 
  

At Ovolo, we want you to be yourself. It’s what keeps us from swimming in the ‘sea of sameness. That’s why here we’ve ditched the tired old ‘corporate scripts’ and empowered our people to speak from the heart. Characters and mavericks, come one, come all. We’re after you with all your you-ness.
