Home to America’s Largest Indoor Waterparks, our African-inspired resorts offer world-class dining, luxurious spas, thrilling entertainment, and cutting-edge convention centers that redefine hospitality.

But we’re more than a resort. As a family-owned company, our Promise is simple : Lead with Love . This means caring deeply for our guests, associates, and communities—treating people like family, giving back generously, and creating spaces where everyone feels valued.

Through our partnership with charity : water, we’re also committed to bringing clean water to one million people in Africa.

Resort Hiring Manager

Kalahari Resorts & Conventions is seeking a dynamic, people-driven Resort Hiring Manager to help shape the future of our talented team at our brand-new Spotsylvania, VA, property. In this role, you'll begin by supporting corporate recruitment initiatives across multiple properties, gaining valuable insight into company-wide systems and standards. After the ramp-up phase, you'll transition into leading full-cycle recruitment efforts for your assigned resort, helping to build the teams that create unforgettable guest experiences.

As part of our leadership team, you’ll embody our Promise to Lead with Love —guiding, supporting, and inspiring associates while delivering extraordinary guest experiences. You’ll play a vital role in shaping the guest and associate experience by attracting and hiring top talent that will deliver exceptional service. You’ll also ensure that every new team member embodies our commitment to hospitality, excellence, and guest satisfaction from day one.

This is an hourly, on-site position based in our Spotsylvania VA., employment office.

  • Partner with department leaders to meet staffing needs efficiently.
  • Organize and lead high-volume interviews and hiring events.
  • Source candidates through online platforms, community outreach, and job fairs.
  • Ensure smooth and professional candidate experience from application to onboarding.
  • Maintain accurate records in the applicant tracking system (ATS).
  • Monitor hiring metrics and adjust strategies as needed.
  • Support onboarding and compliance with all hiring policies and labor laws.
  • Promote Kalahari as an employer of choice in the community.

What We’re Looking For

  • Industry Knowledge : A Strong understanding of hospitality industry, resort, or waterpark operations is highly preferred.
  • Technical Skills : Proficient in Applicant Tracking Systems and virtual interview platforms (e.g., Teams, Zoom).
  • Communication : Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to partner with leaders and engage candidates.
  • Organization : Able to manage multiple openings, plan hiring events, and meet staffing deadlines.
  • Flexibility : Willing to work non-traditional hours based on business needs.
  • Experience : 2+ years in recruiting or HR, preferably in hospitality or high-volume environments. Prior experience with hourly or seasonal hiring is a plus.
  • Compliance : Familiar with hiring laws, EEO standards, and onboarding best practices.
  • A Sampling of Our Benefits

  • Career growth opportunities with promotion from within
  • 401(k) matching, paid time off, and holiday compensation
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage for full-time associates
  • Employee appreciation events, discounts, and perks at all resorts
  • Education assistance programs to help advance your career
  • Be Part of Something Extraordinary
