Hostel and Events Manager of #1 Hostel in North America & Top 10 in the World interested in joining a great team! (Updated)

Hello,

I've been the Hostel Manager and Events Manager for one of the #1 hostels in North America for the past 3-1/2 years. We've been rated the #1 hostel at least one month of every year over the past 3 years and probably would be almost every month if we had a newer, updated building. The main aspect of the hostel in which I've been managing has continually received Hostelworld ratings above 90%; the events and entertainment aspects of the hostel. I've been working the front desk as well and more or less self-managing the entire operations of the hostel, checking in as many as 40+ RSVP's per 8 hour shift, while also managing on average over 180 guests per night with only the help of the cleaning staff and owners "remotely". I would consider myself an expert in running a hostel in the U.S., knowing what it takes to make a Hostel #1 and maintain that rating! I also know what lacks in a hostel, while continuing to create solutions to make not only the hostel better, but the industry as well. I've established 3 year contracts with some of the top nightclubs in the world, while having added a world-class entertainment package for the guests, and on average escorting over 100 guests per night to nightclubs and other events 7 nights per week. When I started at the hostel there was no entertainment director, entertainment packages, or nightclub events. I created the first events with 20 persons per evening one night per week, then building to over 100 guests per evening 7 nights per week. I also added a professional dj set-up for our guests and myself to perform 3 to 5 nights per week as I managed the hostel and the front desk, and created and produced a daytime pool party called the "Electric Beach Party", booking top local and aspiring International DJ's for our guests to enjoy. Most people who stay with us say the hostel is one of the top 3 hostels in the world, it was rated TOP 10 in the World in 2013 for parties and atmosphere, and I take great pride in this! I'm interested in primarily Entertainment Management and creating great events that build a Hostel Business and it's ratings, but am also very interested in assisting and/or managing any or all aspects of Hostel Operations with a team or owner that is looking to grow and build the #1 Hostel in its unique location, environment, and attributes! I'm open to any and all ideas anyone may have and would love to brainstorm to help build your business and listen to your ideas first! I'm an absolutely loyal, open minded person who will stick with the best upcoming hostel in your market until we build to the point that your team wants to get to. I'm a Beach, Entertainment, Surf kind of guy who loves great hospitality, great events, cultural activities, and natural environments. What I'm really looking for is a hostel that continually wants to "grow and progress" while becoming and maintaining the "best ratings"! If this interests you in any way, please contact me asap as Im looking to start in another hostel and start building together as soon as April 10th. I'm primarily looking for "business building" employment right now because I'm also working on a Masters Degree in Sustainable Tourism Development through Hospitality and Entertainment, which lends itself to ideal business strategies for a hostel looking to grow. Please contact me at [email protected] or call me at 1(310)383-5935 or we can set-up a Skype appointment at your convenience. Thank you for your time and I look forward to our success together! Cheers,

Joe 1(310)383-5935
