WHY LAMINGTON GROUP

Care, made daily.

Lamington Group is a London-based hospitality company operating a growing portfolio of properties. We are on a journey to 5,000 net-zero rooms, powered by technology that puts people first. Our technology function is small, ambitious, and central to how we scale. We believe in foundations before innovation, practical AI that people actually use, and building repeatable capability rather than one-off projects.

We are looking for people who care about the work in front of them and the people around them. If that sounds like you, keep reading.

What's the role about?

You sit at the financial pulse of Lamington Group, holding the numbers that every other decision in the business leans on. This role isn't about quietly working a queue of invoices in the corner; it is about taking real ownership of the ledgers, the cash position and the revenue story, understanding where each figure comes from, and making sure the picture we report is the picture that's actually true.

Your work has a direct, visible impact on everything under our roof. You move revenue journals from the operating system into Sun Systems, keeping the integrations honest and the reporting accurate, and when something doesn't tie you chase it down rather than carry it forward. You are the first point of contact for RES on anything revenue-related, so the answer people get is your answer. You reconcile the receivables ledger, the purchase ledger and the bank, and you close those loops properly, because a clean reconciliation is what lets a General Manager trust their P&L and a supplier trust us.

Your day is active, varied and closer to the operation than most finance roles. You watch the cash daily, making sure there are sufficient funds across the bank accounts to cover what's coming, and you keep the direct debits, standing orders and Revolut pots funded and moving without drama. You process senior managers' credit card expenditure each month, handle third-party demands, and keep the utilities accounts current so no property is ever caught out by a payment nobody was tracking. At month-end you pull your weight on the close, and in between you pick up the ad-hoc work the department throws up, because in a business this pace something always comes up.

Alongside the routine you keep communication flowing cleanly — with RES, with suppliers, with the property teams and with the wider head office departments — explaining a number as readily as you produce it. Accuracy is the baseline; being the person others can ask is the difference.

This role gives back real exposure to how a growing hospitality group actually runs its money: multi-entity ledgers, live cash management and a genuine seat at month-end rather than a view of it from outside. You will strengthen your technical accounting foundations, your commercial understanding of the operation, and your confidence dealing directly with people at every level of the business. We prioritise internal development and real responsibility, making this a strong step for someone building towards a fully qualified finance career inside a company that runs on straight talking and trust.

Five things we hire for.

These are the Lamington Group Values. We use them across every role in the Group, from Maintenance to Front of House to Support Office positions. If three or more of these read like you on a good day, this is your kind of place.

Use Instinct. You read what's needed and act on it. You back human judgement, the unmet need, the early signal, the moment of hesitation, with care.


Own It. You finish what you start. You are honest about what works and what doesn't. The thing you spotted is yours until it's fixed.


Include All. You build trust quickly with guests, colleagues and partners. You are open, real, and you treat the team like a team.


Stay Curious. You ask why. You keep learning the building, the systems, the neighbourhood. You'd rather know how something works than fake it.


Think Big. You reject 'good enough'. You spot patterns and bring better ideas, even when the small fix would do.

We don't hire for years of hotel experience. We can teach the systems. We can't teach you how to read a room.

On a good day, you might…

• Push the revenue journals across from the operating system into Sun Systems, watch the integration behave, and spot the one figure that doesn't look right before anyone else does
• Work through the receivables ledger and clear a reconciliation that's been nagging at you for a fortnight
• Match off the purchase ledger with a supplier, sort a mismatch on the phone, and leave the relationship better than you found it
• Run the bank recs and know, properly know, that the cash position on screen is the cash position in reality
• Check the accounts first thing and make sure there's enough sitting there to cover everything landing today — then flag it early if there isn't
• Top up the Revolut pots, sanity-check the direct debits and standing orders, and make sure nothing's quietly failed overnight
• Process a month's worth of senior managers' card spend, chase the two missing receipts, and get it coded properly
• Square off a utilities account for a property so no one ever has to think about it
• Deal with a third-party demand calmly and get it resolved before it becomes someone's problem
• Get stuck into month-end close alongside the team and feel the numbers land
• Pick up whatever the day throws at you, because in a business moving this fast, something always comes up

Experience that fits the role.

• Transfer revenue journals from the operating system to Sun Systems, ensuring system integrations function correctly and revenue is reported accurately; investigate and resolve any discrepancies. 
• Act as the first point of contact for RES on all revenue-related enquiries. 
• Reconcile the receivables ledger.
•  Reconcile the purchase ledger (suppliers). 
• Perform bank reconciliations. 
• Process senior managers' credit card expenditure on a monthly basis. 
• Manage third-party demands. 
• Ensure sufficient funds are available across bank accounts to cover forthcoming transactions daily. 
• Manage direct debits and standing orders. 
• Monitor Revolut card balances, ensuring individual pots remain adequately funded. 
• Manage utilities accounts and ensure all payments are kept up to date. 
• Assist with month-end close. 
• Undertake any additional or ad-hoc tasks that may arise from time to time to support the needs of the department.

What you get back.

• Team that means it. You’ll work alongside people who understand that total infrastructure reliability, data protection, and a thriving digital culture are collective efforts. IT Operations Managers are deeply respected, vital pillars of our support business with present, hands-on leaders who offer regular check-ins focused on your well-being, efficiency ideas, and professional growth.

• Growth that's real. We prioritise internal development and progression. Whether your path leads toward senior corporate technology management, portfolio infrastructure design, or senior executive leadership roles across Lamington Group, we want to help you build a lasting career.

• Learning, built in. You’ll receive structured onboarding and hands-on training to build confidence from day one. You’ll strengthen your total business technology leadership capacity, master comprehensive cloud and hardware logistics, and gain valuable experience in full subscription management, capital expenditure (CapEx) tracking, strict cybersecurity compliance regulation, and cross-departmental development that stays with you.

• Time off that respects you. We know life exists outside of work. Additional annual leave that grows with length of service, company benefits, two paid volunteer days each year, and a Company Sick Pay Scheme, in addition to time to recharge. All part of creating a sustainable working environment.

• Stay with us, on us. Access friends-and-family rates across our hometels and wider group properties. Experience the spaces you help create and see the brand through a guest’s eyes. And have one free stay, on us!

• The day-to-day. Competitive benefits package including pension contributions, team support, wellbeing initiatives, Cycle to work scheme and use of gym facilities in our hotels, and the everyday essentials that help make work feel rewarding, not just routine.

Our hiring process.

We try to keep it short, honest, and human.

• 1. Apply. Send us your CV and a few lines on why this role caught your eye. A formal cover letter is not required, we'd rather hear you.

• 2. First conversation. A 30-minute call with the hiring manager. We talk about the role, the team, and you.

• 3. On-site visit. Meet the team. See the office. We want you to know what you're signing up for before you say yes.

• 4. Offer. If it's a fit on both sides, we move quickly.

WE CLOSE THE LOOP
Every applicant hears back from us, yes or no. We don't ghost.

A note on inclusion.

Lamington Group is an equal opportunities employer. We hire based on attitude and ability. 

We welcome applications from every background, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief.

If you need any adjustments to take part in our hiring process, tell us when you apply. We’ll work with you.
