Caravan & Cabin Park Managers

Lunar Cabins is located in Parkes, NSW - a dynamic town that is expanding in population and infrastructure. Situated one hour drive from Orange and five hours west from Sydney, Parkes has a great rural history, and is well known for “The Dish”. Lunar Cabins is a cabin and caravan park, a couple of minutes drive to the centre of town. The park has had recent upgrades, with new cabins and renovated cabins now throughout the park. There are future developments planned for the next year or so. The park offers 24 cabins, three caravans, a few powered sites, a swimming pool, two amenities blocks, and an outdoor BBQ kitchen with outdoor dining tables. Our park is known as “the quiet park”, which our customers love, and we aim to ensure it stays this way.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic person/couple to manage Lunar Cabins, to help continue our efforts to create a greater accommodation experience for guests. We’re looking for a customer-focussed, proactive and friendly manager(s), who can bring fresh ideas to help improve customer experience. It is a preference, but not a necessity, for the new manager(s) to have accommodation/tourism industry experience. The main prerequisite we have is for the manager(s) to have enthusiasm and initiative to effectively run the park.

The Park Management role is a full-time, contract management position, commencing in mid-April 2024. Training will be provided onsite by the owners of Lunar Cabins, alongside outgoing management. As Park Managers, a three-bedroom house, along with utilities, will be provided (as this is a live-onsite position) as part of your total remuneration package. Pets are welcome, as our park is pet-friendly.

Park Managers will either possess, or be prepared to trade as a Proprietary Limited Company (PTY LTD), and have their own ABN. 

Managers will be managing cleaning staff, and recruiting for cleaners when necessary. Managers will be further rewarded with bonuses for their part in increasing the park's overall profitability.
