  • Competitive Wages

  • Mackenzie Beach Resort is a beachfront glamping and accommodation property in Tofino, BC, offering a distinctive mix of vintage Airstreams, Surf Bungalows, cabins, Forest Camping, and the Spartan Imperial Mansion unit. We combine laid-back coastal hospitality with genuinely memorable guest experiences, and we're looking for a hands-on leader to help run the property day to day.

    The Opportunity

    MBR is hiring an Assistant General Manager to support the General Manager in overseeing all aspects of resort operations — guest experience, front office, housekeeping, maintenance coordination, staff supervision, and administrative operations. This is a leadership role suited to someone who thrives in a fast-paced, guest-facing environment and wants real ownership over how a property runs.

    What You'll Do

    •    Act as the primary on-property leader in the General Manager's absence, with full authority to resolve operational and guest issues

    •    Oversee daily operations across front desk, housekeeping, and grounds/maintenance to ensure smooth, consistent guest experiences

    •    Supervise, schedule, and support front-line staff; assist with hiring, onboarding, and performance management

    •    Handle escalated guest concerns and service recovery with sound judgment and a calm, solutions-first approach

    •    Support budgeting, payroll administration, and expense tracking in coordination with the General Manager

    •    Monitor and help maintain quality, safety, and brand standards across all unit types (Airstreams, Surf Bungalows, cabins, Forest Camping, Spartan Imperial Mansion)

    •    Assist with vendor and contractor coordination for maintenance, supplies, and property upkeep

    •    Contribute to marketing, promotions, and local partnership initiatives as needed

    •    Step into General Manager responsibilities during absences, vacations, or peak-season support periods

    What You Bring

    •    2+ years of supervisory or management experience in hospitality, resort, or short-term accommodation operations

    •    Strong working knowledge of front office and property management systems (Cloudbeds experience an asset)

    •    Demonstrated ability to lead a team, resolve conflict, and stay composed under pressure

    •    Comfort with hands-on, varied work — this role moves between front desk, admin, and property walk-throughs

    •    Availability for flexible scheduling, including weekends, holidays, and peak summer season

    •    Valid BC driver's licence considered an asset

    •    A genuine interest in the Tofino community and coastal, outdoor lifestyle

    Why Join MBR

    •    Work in one of the most beautiful coastal settings on Vancouver Island

    •    A close-knit, hands-on team environment with real decision-making responsibility

    •    Staff accommodation

    •    Phone Allowance

    •    Medical/Dental Benefits

    Salary/Wage: $55,000- $62,500
