Description
The Company
Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Aperture Hotels is an emerging leader in the hotel management industry. The company operates 23 hotels flagged by the world's most reputable brands, including Marriott, Hilton, and IHG, as well as independents. Aperture follows a value-based approach to management, which is evidenced by an above average portfolio-wide Gross Operating Profit margin. The company's approach to management allows it to achieve outsized risk-adjusted returns for partners and investors.
The CEO of Aperture Hotels is seeking a highly accomplished professional to lead a steadily growing hotel portfolio of branded and independent limited-service, upscale select-service, and compact full-service hotels.
