SENIOR CAPITAL PROJECT MANAGER – OVERVIEW
A newly created opportunity has become available for an experienced Senior Capital Project Manager to join our Development Team. The position is based at our Head Quarters in Central London.

WHO ARE WE
Generator is on a journey. Appropriate, given that we're a leading global lifestyle accommodation brand. The journey began in London, swung through a heap of European capitals on its way to dominating the world. Generator burst onto the scene in the Americas with the launch of Generator Miami and Washington DC and most recently took aim at the country’s biggest markets (NYC, LA, Miami and Chicago) with the acquisition of Freehand Hotels.

No biggie. Fast Company named us one of the top 50 most innovative global companies. We, of course, agree. And now this top 50 most innovative global company (did we mention that?) wants a pretty awesome Senior Capital Project Manager for our Generator Head Office,

Our spaces are safe and seriously social, in the proudest part of the beating heart of the cities we love. Cultural action, creative pulse and an outstanding way to waste some of the finite time the universe has given you - that's what Generator offers.

BEING YOURSELF is the key to bringing the Generator story and brand to life.
