General Manager · New Opening · The Standard, Lisbon

Let's Go Lisbon slated to open 2026, The Standard, Lisbon marks our long-anticipated arrival in one of Europe's most happening cities.

The Standard, Lisbon, located at Palácio Santa Clara rises above the colourful alleyways of Alfama, one of the most picturesque neighbourhoods in Lisbon to offer first-row seating to the best river views in town. Built upon the ancient College of St. Francis Xavier which has continuously served as the Portuguese Royal Navy Hospital for over 200 years. Samuel Torres de Carvalho is a leading architect dedicated to reimagining the property to a forward-facing Lisbon, that promises to expect the unconventional, whist carefully respecting the building's heritage.

Anchored in food, music, art, and culture, The Standard, Lisbon brings the brand's design, culture and activation-driven philosophy to Portugal and will be a place for both locals and travellers to soak up the best of Lisbon. With 165 guestrooms (plus adjacent residences), this expansive property features numerous spaces for The Standard's renowned day- and nightlife programming. The ground floor welcomes guests and locals into the lobby lounge, pharmacy bar, all day dining restaurant, and multiple terraces, gardens and pool deck. Upstairs, there is the Café, Spa & Gym, plus event spaces. The Rooftop features its own dedicated bar and roof terrace—set to become a neighbourhood destination. Throughout the building, additional public and private event spaces are platforms for happenings.

The Standard's signature mix of playful, sophisticated, unexpected hospitality finds roots and resonances in local culture in Lisbon's oldest neighbourhood and the city's cultural hub. Fado's holy land and a charming labyrinth of alleyways, curled staircases and hidden patios, this hole-in-the-wall mecca will surprise and delight time and again, juxtaposed by The Standard, which will of course be anything but

We are defined by our richness of personality, diversity of background and lifestyle and are now looking for a General Manager who will embody our 'Anything but Standard' ethos as we commence our pre-opening period.

Your role

As the General Manager for The Standard, Lisbon you will work in partnership with the Head of Lifestyle Operations EAME, Ownership and our Senior Leadership team to oversee our critical path and pre-opening period of the hotel, to ensure that the project runs to schedule, pre-opening budgets are managed and the property is successfully launched.

This role is pivotal within the business to ensure that strategic commercial decisions flow through all areas of the operation to ensure productivity and profit is maintained at optimum levels. You will lead and guide the senior team through revenue generation, labour productivity and cost control are in line with our pre-opening and operating budget. With this in mind, you will lead and manage the Annual Budget, Annual Marketing Plan, Annual Capital Expenditure Plan, and Forecasts/Re-forecasts in conjunction with our ownership and ensure strategic objectives are communicated to the team so to share the 'big picture'.

Naturally you will be a strong operator with a solid background within both Rooms and F&B to enable you to take a pragmatic & creative approach to the business in order to develop new concepts, take an active role in hotel programming & events and develop partnerships to support revenue generation across all areas of the business.

Finally, you will take overall responsibility across the business for the implementation of company policies and procedures to ensure that all statutory and legal obligations are met, from licensing, fire, health & safety through to insurance and GDPR requirements.

As a natural team leader, you remain calm during challenging situations with the ability to lead, motivate and coach your team to enable them to develop and grow their skills. This is not a 'Standard' General Manager role so you will need to have serious stamina and passion, be highly social, upbeat, and friendly; confident and handle pressure well; thrive in a high-volume, high-energy environment and able to work equally well both independently and as part of a wider senior management team.
