According to Mike Donoghue, managing director, “We’re opening up interviews soon to add to our executive staff that already includes Henry Chaperont as the director of food and beverage, Bailey Ward as the director of sales and catering, and Weston Arnsten as the manager of guest services.

The boutique hotel will have 31 rooms and suites, a New York-style steakhouse, a full-service spa and pet-friendly amenities such as dog walkers and custom pet beds.

The Chancellor’s House management team is expecting the very highest quality applicants. Developer and hotelier Fred Alias has maintained a policy throughout his career, saying, “I believe in paying the best salary and demanding the best service.”

The Chancellor’s House staff will work with the very best in the world of luxury hotels, as well as have the opportunity to be a part of a new boutique hotel brand that will be unlike anything else in Mississippi.

Every facet of Chancellor’s House is devoted to setting the standard for luxurious lodging, and that commitment extends to the uniforms the staff will wear. The staff will be “dressed to the nines” in custom luxury uniforms designed by Top Hat Imagewear, ensuring that the hotel staff will be as elegant and well appointed as the hotel itself.

Lieutenant Governor Tate Reeves said, “I am proud to see Oxford’s hospitality market expand with the opening of a fantastic upscale venue — The Chancellor’s House.  The business-friendly environment we have created in Mississippi is encouraging capital investment in our state, like the Chancellor’s House, and adding quality jobs to our communities.”

According to Donoghue, those interested in applying for the available positions should send resumes to careers@chancellorshouse.com.
