Skills Needed About The Company We are an independent, family-owned hotel with a story that started in the ****s when Marie O'Sullivan, just fourteen years old, began working in her aunt's guesthouse (which she eventually bought and ran herself.) That spirit of hard work, resourcefulness, and determination still guides everything we do today.
Being family-owned means we can make decisions based on what is right—for our guests, our team, our environment, and our community—not just what is profitable.
We believe that true luxury is not about being flashy or formal.
It is a much quieter, warmer, kinder thing.
It is about creating a place where people feel genuinely welcome and cared for, and that starts with how we treat one another.
Company Culture What we stand for matters Working at The Killarney Park means joining a team that values bravery, authenticity, and belonging.
Being Brave means speaking up with new ideas, taking ownership of your role, and doing things the right way even when it is challenging.
Being Authentic means bringing your real self to work.
We do not want you to follow scripts or put on a fake smile; we want your natural warmth to shine through.
Creating Belonging means making sure everyone feels welcome and valued - our guests, and your teammates, too.
These are not just nice words.
They guide how we show up, how we work, and how we make a difference every day.
