Summary
At The Lifestyle Group, we don’t just design hotels, we create cultural hubs, social playgrounds, and places people want to return to again and again. Our brands are rooted in creativity, individuality, and experience, and our hotels are destinations in their own right. And at the heart of it all? Our incredible team.
We don’t do cookie-cutter. We don’t do scripts. We do personality, passion, and individuality.
We believe hotels should be more than places to sleep. They should be destinations, experiences, and moments in time that guests remember long after they leave. That’s why we challenge the status quo, bringing bold ideas, unconventional luxury, and immersive culture to everything we do.
The Lifestyle Group by Hyatt is a collective of experience-led, design-driven, culture-first hotel brands, formed in January 2024 following Hyatt’s acquisition of Standard International. Our portfolio includes The Standard, Bunkhouse Hotels, The StandardX, The Manner, Andaz, Thompson, Dream, JdV, Breathless, and me and all; each with its own point of view, all powered by creativity, community, and Hyatt’s global scale. Together, we’re setting a new “anything but” standard in lifestyle hospitality where 1 + 1 truly equals 3.
We’re now looking for a Design & OS+E Senior Manager, Lifestyle, EAME, based in London, to join our team and help bring this vision to life across the region. If you thrive where creativity meets operations, and where design thinking extends all the way to the guest touchpoint, we’d love to meet you.
Your role
As Design & OS+E Senior Manager, Lifestyle, EAME, you’ll sit at the intersection of creative vision and operational reality. Reporting into the Global Director of Product Development & OS+E for all OS+E matters, and working closely with the Global Head of Design & Creative Services on new development and activations, you’ll ensure our brands come to life not just beautifully, but brilliantly.
You’ll lead and manage OS+E across the EAME region, supporting both existing hotels and new openings. You’ll support the Global Director of Product Development & OS+E in managing Lifestyle brand standards across the region, leading OS+E requests for existing properties spanning F&B serve ware, glassware and flatware, guest-facing supplies, operational equipment, uniforms, and guestroom touchpoints. For new hotel openings, you’ll develop OS+E outlines, sourcing strategies, and detailed specifications, ensuring every element aligns with brand DNA while meeting operational needs.
You’ll build and maintain strong relationships with both trusted and emerging vendors through showroom visits, sourcing trips, and ongoing research, staying ahead of industry trends and product innovation. You’ll manage key documentation including brand standard visual decks, OS+E property decks, and presentations, while tracking timelines, milestones, and budgets to ensure projects are delivered on time, on brand, and on budget.
Working cross-functionally with Operations, IT, F&B, Marketing, and Development teams, you’ll help ensure seamless collaboration and execution across projects. You’ll support and train on-property Design Managers, participate in site visits, trade shows, and opening taskforces across the region, and contribute creatively to activations and new development initiatives as needed.
This isn’t just about sourcing products. It’s about curating experiences, building relationships, and ensuring every detail, down to the last fork, feels intentional.
