Porto and Oviedo, managing teams, coordinating with suppliers, and ensuring outstanding guest

experience. You will act as the key link between headquarters and local operations, owning

stakeholders (suppliers, the team, other departments, etc.), ensuring deadlines are met

and results optimized, while fostering a proactive work environment and making work

easier for others.

● Ensure the buildings are in good condition in terms of quality by making proactive

daily decisions. This means anticipating potential problems and acting effectively.

expected results, identifying reasons when this doesn’t happen, and implementing

corrective actions through training, clarification, or process adjustments.

● Local leadership and alignment with corporate strategy: The CiM role is not only

operational but also strategic, as a central figure in implementing the company’s global

vision at the local level. This is crucial, since the CiM must connect the team’s work with the

broader organizational objectives.

work environment.

impact, anticipating trends or challenges.
