About this template
The ATS Hospitality template is a CV with a Playfair Display identity and gold accent, built for the codes of luxury hospitality. The serif speaks of heritage hotels and white-glove service, yet every keyword still parses cleanly through Workday, SuccessFactors and Oracle Recruiting ATS used by international luxury hotel groups (Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental, Aman, Ritz-Carlton, Rosewood, Belmond, LVMH Hotels, Marriott Luxury Brands) and Michelin-starred restaurant groups.
Who is it for?
It suits hotel general managers (4 and 5-star, palace category), F&B directors, front-office managers, Les Clefs d'Or concierges, sommeliers, Michelin-starred executive chefs and MICE leaders in luxury hospitality. Also fits managing directors of fine-dining restaurants, applicants to hospitality management schools (EHL Lausanne, Cornell SHA, Glion, Les Roches) and Resort General Manager roles at Aman, Six Senses and Soneva properties in the Maldives, Bali, Caribbean and Mauritius.
How to use it
Four blocks structure the document — Hospitality roles (with category, room or cover count, Michelin/Forbes/LQA distinctions), Quantified achievements (RevPAR, occupancy rate, GOP, NPS, Tripadvisor/Booking score), Professional certifications (WSET sommelier, AHLEI, Les Clefs d'Or), Languages spoken (CEFR level, particularly relevant in international palace hotels). Cite Forbes Five Star, LQA and Michelin Key distinctions earned under your tenure. SEO long-tail: '5-star hotel general manager CV', 'palace front-office manager resume', 'Michelin F&B director CV', 'starred sommelier resume', 'international resort GM CV'.
Frequently asked questions
Should I include Michelin and Forbes distinctions obtained?
Yes — it is a screening criterion at Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental, Aman and top New York / London / Paris hotels. List the year awarded, the exact distinction (Forbes Five Star, LQA, Michelin Key, Relais & Châteaux), and your role at the time of the audit. For chefs and sommeliers, list Michelin stars earned under your tenure (rising star, star maintained, star lost) with context. Transparency about a lost star reads better than silence — it proves operational maturity.
How do I quantify the performance of a hotel led?
List the triplet RevPAR / occupancy rate / GOP (Gross Operating Profit) over the tenure, with year-on-year evolution. For leisure groups, add NPS and the average Tripadvisor/Booking score. For MICE and events, cite the segment mix (corporate, leisure, group, MICE), the revenue management system used (IDeaS, Duetto) and key group accounts signed. For a palace, mention average length of stay and the RevPAR Index versus comp set as defined by STR.
Does the template work for an international resort application?
Yes, particularly for Aman, Six Senses, Belmond, Rosewood and Four Seasons Resorts (Maldives, Caribbean, Bali, Mauritius, Bhutan). Reinforce the Languages section with precise CEFR levels and any notion of Arabic, Mandarin, Russian or Japanese (HNW clienteles). Add a 'International mobility' subsection listing countries where you have worked and your visa status (talent passport, golden visa, dual nationality). Resort GMs are recruited on operational capacity AND intercultural agility.
