Brilliant buildings in some of the world’s coolest cities – what’s not to like?
At Lore Group, thoughtful design, interesting use of space, and, most importantly, our people are at the heart of everything we do.
We are an international hospitality company that designs, transforms, manages and operates distinctive hotel and food and drink concepts in some of the world’s most vibrant cities, across Europe and the US. Our mission is to create inspired, approachable spaces that leave a lasting impression on guests from around the globe.
Our award-winning portfolio includes iconic properties, such as Pulitzer Amsterdam, Riggs Washington DC, Sea Containers London, One Hundred Shoreditch, Lyle Washington DC, Kimpton De Witt Amsterdam, and most recently, Hotel Park Ave in New York. Each hotel is celebrated for its unique character, thoughtful design, dynamic restaurants, award-winning bars and, above all, the passion and dedication of our people.
We are deeply committed to the growth and development of our team. Through tailored training, mentoring and coaching, we support our people in building meaningful, long-term careers. As a small, independent group with a global footprint, we offer personalised career progression opportunities. Many of our team members have expanded their roles by transferring between our European and American properties.
We prioritise internal mobility and promotion wherever possible, supported by a blend of internal and external learning resources. We believe our future leaders are alongside us.
At Lore Group, we’re proud to offer a range of exciting opportunities for those looking to grow their careers with us. One standout initiative is Design Your Career, our first graduate management development programme, created to nurture future leaders through immersive learning and hands-on experience. Participants rotate through key operational departments across multiple hotels and even countries, gaining a truly global perspective.
In addition, we’ve recently launched Navigate Your Career, our first internal leadership development programme. This tailored initiative supports our hotel leadership teams at every stage of their development journey, helping them grow with purpose and confidence.
We’ve recently made significant investments in technology to elevate experiences for both our guests and our employees. A key milestone in this journey is the launch of our Global People Hub, a pioneering, world-first platform that unifies all our people systems across every hotel worldwide. This innovative solution enhances the employee experience by bringing everyone together under one seamless, global system.
We want our teams to feel valued, so we offer a range of standout benefits across our regions, including:
“After finishing university, I felt directionless and spent a few years working in pubs in south-east London. After some success and the accompanying stress, I realised I needed a change.
“I had never worked in central London before, so I applied for a position with the bell and door team at Sea Containers, not fully understanding what the job was. I spent two years in this role developing and was given the freedom to explore all the opportunities available. During this time, I gained experience working shifts in guest services, room service, events operations, guest engagement and housekeeping. After two years of exploring different roles and applying myself I settled as a front desk supervisor.
“Lore Group is an ever-evolving company, and I feel the more I commit to that journey, the more opportunities for growth appear. Whether that is working in different departments, in-house training schemes or conversations with directors like our chief executive or chief operations officer.”
