What Skills and Experience do you need to be a Development Duty Manager?
We value lived experience just as much as previous skills and knowledge. We offer a robust induction, ongoing training, and further development, however, some of our roles will have further skills requirements.
Our development duty manager role requires flexibility to cover different shifts and tasks. It’s an advantage but not essential that our duty managers have worked in a face-to-face role with customers previously.
Experience in hospitality or customer service would be advantageous, including the management and delivery of a quality service.

Duties vary so good communication skills,
excellent timekeeping and basic IT skills are advantages.
Knowledge and understanding of YHA’s core purpose and experience of working in a team are beneficial.
