Description

Company Description The Hoxton, Bangalore We are seeking an experienced Director of Finance for The Hoxton, Bangalore. The Hoxton is opening its very first neighbourhood hotel in Asia, coming to India’s Bengaluru city centre in 2026. This is a major milestone for the brand as it ventures into a new continent entirely and we are now looking for a brilliant leadership team to help bring this lifestyle brand to the market. Located in the heart of the city centre, The Hoxton, Bengaluru City will bring its undeniable brand DNA and guest experience to India’s “Silicon Valley”, a high-tech city filled with parks and gardens and known for its vibrant cafe and pub culture - very apt for a brand that was founded in London! The hotel will feature 149 bedrooms in a variety of The Hoxton’s well-loved room categories and the lobby will have a vibrant all-day dining restaurant & bar. Topping off the hotel we will have a rooftop pool and bar, large scale function rooms and The Apartment - The Hoxton’s unique meeting & events concept More about us… The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces. What's in it for you... The opportunity to work with an exciting new hospitality concept in Bangalore and have a real impact on its success. Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that’s committed to not just building new hotels but building a global brand. The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding. Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences and building a portfolio of brands. Great discounts across the entire Ennismore family (which you get to keep even if you decide to leave us!). A competitive package and plenty of opportunity for development. Job Description What you’ll do… Ensure strong financial management within a robust control environment. Have ultimate responsibility for accurate accounting records and provide financial reports for the hotel. The hotel is operated on a self-accounting basis and includes statutory accounts. Manage the finance relationship with operations and finance at hotel and head office ensuring that an excellent service is provided through quality input. Manage the relevant elements of our owner relationship. Lead all elements related to balance sheets, P&L, cash management, capital, amongst others. Provide focused, innovative and value-adding management reporting and analysis. Deliver high quality management information and performance measurement that is accurate and relevant. Ensure reporting that incorporates benchmarking, identification and measurement of key performance indicators and use of balanced scorecard. Optimise and develop systems to improve efficiency and information. Ensure training takes place for users; challenge processes to eliminate non-value adding tasks. Work with colleagues to ensure that errors are corrected at source and processes amended as required, eliminating rather than correcting errors. Lead the planning and forecasting process for The Hoxton, Bangalore and ensure that financial plans are consistent with the strategic objectives. Pro-actively support the General Manager and lead the finance team in hotel strategic planning, focussing on value opportunities. Manage the formulation, review and approval process for budgeting within the hotel. Lead, develop and inspire a high-quality finance team. Actively plan for succession to develop and replace individuals effectively. Develop effectiveness of the finance function through continuous training and development of the team. Lead and motivate the team to high levels of performance. Qualifications What we’re looking for… Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here. Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night. You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience. You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done. You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once. If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs. You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way. 5 plus years of hotel finance experience, ideally already in a Director of Finance role. Strong knowledge and experience of operating requirements from a financial and legal perspective on Indian financial requirements. Technical skill, with a strong understanding of compliance requirements, best practice hotel operations, finance function set up and standard systems. A balance between a methodical and process-driven approach and flexibility and creativity when it comes to meeting deadlines and finding solutions. A qualified accountant would be an advantage.
