Human Resources Manager
Finn Lough, County Fermanagh

At Finn Lough we believe work should feel meaningful. It should feel connected. It should feel like you are part of something that matters. We are a place that has been built slowly and with intention, shaped by people who care about nature, community and the experience we give to every guest. We are not perfect but we try to do things the right way and we try to do them with heart.

We are now recruiting a Human Resources Manager to join our Leadership Team at a time when the organisation is growing and evolving. This is a senior role for someone who sees culture as a living thing and understands that great hospitality comes from people who feel supported, respected and inspired. It is for someone who wants to help shape an organisation that values craft and kindness and who is ready to play a part in guiding a team that wants to look after each other as well as our guests.

You will be the person who helps us find great people, develop them and give them the environment they need to thrive. You will help uphold the standards we believe in and support the steady work of building a workplace where people feel proud to belong.
