• Lead two iconic Tasmanian properties and help shape their future as part of one of Australia's most respected tourism and hospitality brands.

With properties in some of Australia’s most iconic locations, NRMA Parks & Resorts provide accommodation that suits every budget, style, and occasion – from campsites to luxury resorts. We connect holidaymakers with over 50 incredible destinations to create unforgettable holiday experiences. Part of the trusted NRMA Group, a member-owned brand, our passionate team works together to make holiday magic happen—it's not just our job, it's in our nature.

Pumphouse Point is an adults-only retreat nestled on Lake St Clair, just 2.5 hours from Hobart. This hidden gem features 21 rooms in two converted heritage buildings, offering an intimate escape in World Heritage wilderness. Only 10 minutes away, the Derwent Bridge Wilderness Hotel boasts soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and a grand double-sided fireplace at the heart of its bar and restaurant—perfect for relaxing by the fire, enjoying a meal, and sipping a drink in a classic alpine pub.

Nestled in the heart of Tasmania's World Heritage wilderness, Pumphouse Point and Derwent Bridge Hotel offer a once-in-a-career opportunity to lead two iconic destinations. From luxury wilderness accommodation and exceptional dining experiences to authentic Tasmanian hospitality, you'll play a key role in shaping the future of these unique properties while living and working in one of Australia's most breathtaking natural environments.

This is a true leadership-from-the-front opportunity, ideally suited to a hands-on hospitality professional who enjoys balancing strategy with day-to-day operations.

You'll build and develop a high-performing team, foster strong stakeholder and community relationships, drive innovation and guest satisfaction, and ensure the business delivers exceptional commercial results.
