Director of Human Resources Crowne Plaza Auckland

**About us**

There’s nothing complicated about dealing with business people.

They’re just people. Doing business.

By day, international marketing superhero. By night: fluffy bath robe and a box set.

Like Liz, who’s left her laptop cable in the cab. Or Mario, who’s secretly missing his cats. The early riser, who’s first in the gym. The sales team preparing for the ‘big pitch’ over a freshly prepared lunch. At Crowne Plaza Hotels and Resorts, we embrace the new world of business and understand that modern business travelers want a hotel (and a hotel team) that understands and supports them, helping at every turn.

Join us at **Crowne Plaza Auckland** as a **Director of Human Resources** where you'll be engaging the team from behind the scenes to deliver a great guest experience.
