Location, location,location
From the scenery, history and culture, to the friendliness and humour of the people, it’s easy to fall in love with Scotland
It’s no surprise, then, that Rough Guides recently named Scotland the most beautiful country in the world.
Gleneagles is located right at the heart of everything Scotland has to offer – surrounded by stunning countryside, yet also only a short distance from the bustling cities of Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee, Perth and Stirling – so our people have the best of both worlds.
Be a partof history
When Gleneagles first opened, the media coined it the “eighth wonder of the world” and, for 100 years, it’s lived up to that reputation.
Our team have hosted events that have made history, our chefs have cooked for royalty, our linkpeople have rolled out the red carpet for rock stars, our housekeepers have prepared rooms for presidents, our golf pros have taught James Bond how to play golf (yes, really!), and our receptionists have ensured every guest who’s walked through our doors has felt special.
As we continue innovating and setting standards, we’re always looking for people who can help us build on that energy for excellence and shape our future.
