The

Leadership

Gap

It could take 6 months or more to find a suitable GM. Frequently independent hotels or smaller hotel groups do not have the internal depth of talent to seamlessly fill the gap.

This means a hotel can go without the critical leadership role for an extended period, posing a real threat to business continuity.

A

Trusted

Interim GM

Bridge Hospitality Partners (BHP) have a deep and broad list of personally selected, contracted GMs with a background of upscale and luxury hotels who can quickly step into a role to ensure business continuity – a safe pair of hands allowing the owner or asset manager time to find the right permanent candidate.

BHP has created an efficient, streamlined concept and solution for a real-world challenge in the hotel sector focusing on Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Speed

Our interim GMs can start work at very short notice, filling a role in as little as 10–14 days

Expertise

Our interim executives are highly qualified, having worked in multiple GM roles. They have significant experience, in both operational and pre-opening situations. Our GMs have the agility to apply their knowledge and skills effectively in a condensed timeframe while at the same time being stewards of the business.

Objectivity

As an independent third party, an interim GM can provide honest and objective perspectives, without bias.

Cost

An interim employee, in many jurisdictions, does not carry all of the financial obligations of a permanent employee, so offering potential savings.
