• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
• Experience in a similar role with a demonstratable track record of excelling in front office operations and procedures.
• If you’re familiar with Opera or similar front desk operating system and understand GDS that would be a big advantage.
• A natural at leading and managing others, you lead by example and create an environment where your team can be their best self.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• It’s all about the attitude for us, someone who enjoys being helpful to others and isn’t easily flustered – there’s a smaller team working at night so confidence and knowing how to work things out by yourself are key.
