Description
Our Story
Qbic Hotels is an adaptive re-use hotel brand in the mid-market segment that has pioneered the use of offsite construction targeted at building conversions. Sustainability combined with a quirky design style and innovation sit at the heart of the Qbic brand story. We combine this with forward thinking technology and our five best basics proposition: best bed, best shower, best wifi, perfectly clean and best service. The result is a top 10% Trip Advisor ranking, competitive build and operating costs and strong comparative revenues.
Following significant investment, we’re growing quickly and showing no signs of slowing down. Therefore Qbic is now set for aggressive rollout in key cities across the UK and Europe.

About us
At Qbic we welcome character, so to be a true Qbic Ambassador and part of our senior management team we’re looking for someone who is:
• Free-spirited - Following a natural sense of wonder and adventure
• Independent - Exploring and expressing what’s true to you.
• Neighbourly - Welcoming all to come as you are.
• Genuine – a natural and honest experience without any pretence
We’re “people” people and we’re known for doing things differently, but most importantly we put people at the heart of everything we do.
So what does that really mean?
A close-knit group of special people, with the freedom to be themselves and offer guests the warmth and generosity you’d expect from someone welcoming you into their home. We think that this is important as it elevates the Qbic experience and creates a more personal feel for guests. It also gives guests the feeling they are interacting with real people, who care, rather than corporate clones reading from a script.
About you
We are looking for bags of personality and positive attitude. A can-do attitude approach and enthusiasm, paired with a desire to do things well, creating a great guest experience will get you a long way. We’re an inclusive employer so want you to also feel welcome like our guests and free to be yourself.
