General Manager - AETHOS Ericeira

Perched on a clifftop within a protected nature reserve on Portugal's Silver Coast, Aethos Ericeira is a 50-room lifestyle and wellness retreat overlooking some of the world's most celebrated surf breaks. Part of Aethos — Europe's fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality brand — the property reflects a deep respect for its natural setting: a heated saltwater pool, hammam-style spa, panoramic sauna and ice bath, a fully equipped gym, yoga, and Onda, our seafood-driven restaurant celebrating the Silver Coast's culinary heritage.
Aethos isn't about traditional five-star formality — it's barefoot luxury with substance. We're entering an exciting next chapter for the property and are looking for a General Manager who wants to help shape it. Portugal is a key pillar of Aethos's expansion, with a new property opening in Lisbon in 2027 and further Portuguese locations in the pipeline — offering real growth potential for leaders who help build the brand's presence in the country.

We're seeking a General Manager to lead Aethos Ericeira into its next phase — someone energized by building culture and community, comfortable wearing multiple hats in a boutique environment, and genuinely excited by the intersection of hospitality, wellness, design, and sustainability. This is a visible, on-the-floor leadership role. Portuguese fluency is essential — the GM will be the face of the property locally.
