Reservations Agent – The Medlock at Etihad Campus, Manchester
At The Medlock Hotel, we believe every guest experience begins with a conversation. As a Reservations Agent, you’ll be the voice of our brand, ensuring every booking is seamless and will play a key role in the fantastic hotel opening at the heart of Manchester’s Etihad Campus, home to Manchester City Football Club.
This brand-new 401-key hotel is set to be a game-changer in hospitality, seamlessly integrating with one of the most prestigious entertainment and sporting destinations globally.
The next evolution of the Etihad Campus will see it become a thriving sports and entertainment district, featuring state-of-the-art training facilities, a world class 60,000 seater stadium, and vibrant leisure spaces including the Co-op Live arena. It will become a world-class hub for elite sport, music, and entertainment, attracting visitors from around the world.
The new hotel will sit at the heart of a vibrant and evolving Etihad Campus — an exceptional place for guests, teams, partners and fans to rest, reset and immerse themselves in everything the campus has to offer.
