One Wild Team

“In nature, nothing stands alone. The whole supports the parts, and at the same time, the parts support the whole. And they do so effortlessly."

Director of Hospitality

Lead a new era of purpose-led hospitality in Scotland.

A rare opportunity to shape exceptional guest experiences across one of Scotland's most ambitious hospitality, conservation and regeneration collections.

Hospitality with Purpose

WildLand is restoring and revitalising some of Scotland's most remarkable landscapes, buildings and communities for future generations. Our vision reaches far beyond traditional hospitality. Through thoughtful restoration, conservation and community investment, we create places where nature, heritage and people can thrive together. Every destination within our collection has its own story, character and sense of place. Our role is to bring these places to life through authentic experiences that connect guests with the landscape, culture and communities that make them unique.

The Art of Hosting

At WildLand, hospitality is more than accommodation, food and service. We believe true hospitality is the feeling of being welcomed by a trusted friend or family member. It is warmth, generosity, attentiveness and genuine human connection. The experiences we create are personal, memorable and deeply rooted in place. Every interaction, every detail and every moment should leave guests feeling known, cared for and inspired.

Exceptional hospitality begins with exceptional hosting.

Building People, Shaping Places

As Director of Hospitality, you will shape and lead the hospitality strategy across WildLand's growing collection. Working closely with the CEO and senior leadership team, you will develop a hospitality culture that balances exceptional guest experiences with strong commercial performance and long-term sustainability, underpinned by a leadership approach that nurtures and develops people through kindness, care, accountability and empowerment. This is an opportunity to influence not only business performance, but to showcase how hospitality can actively contribute to landscape restoration, community regeneration and Scotland's future.

This role sits at the intersection of purpose, place and performance.
