Purchasing Supervisor

Company Description Founded in 2008 by Serge Trigano and his sons Jérémie and Benjamin (co-founders of Club Med), Mama Shelter is a creator of living spaces and a daily director! These are atypical places where everyone feels at home, born of a blend of influences, freedoms, sensations and emotions. Each Mama tells the story of the city in which it is located, blending all influences together.

We offer our guests a joyful atmosphere and exceptional service at an affordable price. More than just rooms and restaurants, Mama Shelter is a dynamic vibe: true urban refuges, aesthetically modern yet popular, welcoming and sexy. Whatever your role, we’re all here to make the customer experience unforgettable. Our mission: bring little moments of happiness to people. Our growth has enabled great career paths through internal development and international mobility, not a question of diplomas or years of experience.

Mama Shelter is part of Ennismore, a creative hotel group rooted in cultures and destinations, with a global portfolio of brands. Ennismore is a joint venture with Accor, founded in 2021.
