Job Description

At Accent Inns We Really Give A Duck

We give a duck about our employees, our guests, our communities…and we give a free rubber duck in every Accent Inns room. Now we are looking for a General Manager to join our flock, but there is nothing general about what we are looking for. We are looking for a kind and loving individual who will take charge of the entire hotel operation, enriching the day-to-day experience for our guests and employees.

What Is Ducky About Us

Have Each Other’s Backs

Here we want our Fam-Jam to feel well taken care of by us and by one another. That’s who we are!
