We’re proud winners of the AA Small Hotel Group of the year 2024-25, rated as a Top 30 Best Place to Work in Hospitality 2024 by The Caterer, and recently crowned Best Employer at the Springboard Awards for Excellence.
Start your career with a luxury hotel collection celebrated for excellence.
Recently graduated with a degree in Hospitality Management or Travel & Tourism? Looking for a role where no two days are the same, and where you can gain credible experience within the luxury hotel market? This is a unique opportunity to launch your career with the award-winning Eden Hotel Collection.
Commencing from Summer 2025, our graduate opportunities offer a structured and supportive pathway into high-end hospitality – ideal for individuals looking to refine their career direction or build a foundation for future leadership.
What you’ll be doing: Whether you have a clear ambition or are still exploring which department suits you best, our graduate placements are tailored to your goals and experience. You’ll gain hands-on exposure in key operational areas, with options that include:
* Rotational roles across departments such as Food & Beverage and Front Office – ideal for those seeking a broad base of experience
* Direct entry into a supervisory position within a specific department (based on experience and fit)
You’ll work closely with departmental leaders, gradually taking on more responsibility and making a meaningful contribution to guest experiences while developing your own management skills.
In addition, you’ll be part of our tailored development sessions led by our in-house Learning & Development team and Senior Leadership, including sessions on Financial Management, Revenue, Recruitment & Selection, and Motivating Others. These will support your personal and professional growth as you progress within the collection.
What you’ll need:
* Hold a degree in Hospitality Management, Travel & Tourism, or a related discipline
* Have completed a 26–48 week placement or internship as part of your studies or have significant operational experience gained during your studies
* Relevant experience working in a UK-based hotel or hospitality environment
* Be passionate about delivering five-star service and creating memorable guest experiences
* Demonstrate strong communication skills, a team-focused mindset, and a proactive approach
* Show a commitment to building a lasting career in the luxury hospitality industry
What to expect:
* Full-time role, working a minimum of 40 hours per week across 5 days, with shift patterns including early starts from 6am and late finishes up to 11pm and beyond. Weekend work, especially Friday–Sunday, is standard during our busiest periods.
This is more than just a graduate job. It’s your opportunity to gain real responsibility from day one, learn from industry leaders, and build a lasting career with one of the UK’s most respected luxury boutique hotel groups.
What’s in it for you?
* Many of our graduates have progressed into management and beyond – and we’re ready to support you in doing the same.
* Spaces are limited and offered on a rolling basis – early application is encouraged.
* At Eden Hotel Collection, we’re proud of our award-winning approach to employee wellbeing, engagement, and recognition, with industry awards in 2023 and 2024. We value your happiness, growth, and success every step of the way.
Benefits include generous time off, tips, discounts & perks, wellbeing support, health plans, sustainable commuting options, exclusive hotel perks, recognition platforms, family-friendly policies, everyday essentials, and a culture of collaboration and care.
We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where your voice matters. We welcome applications from all backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences, including underrepresented groups, parents, and people with disabilities. Join us to experience a values-led, award-winning employer.
