Picture this: you’re the friendly face that sets the tone for every guest’s stay — creating a warm welcome from the very first moment. You deliver service that’s both efficient and personal, anticipating needs, sharing recommendations, and making every interaction feel effortless.
You'll move confidently between tasks — handling bookings, answering questions, and supporting across departments — always bringing a calm, informed, and approachable style. No two shifts are ever the same: new guests, new stories, and new opportunities to make someone’s day that little bit brighter.
As a Guest Service Team Member, you’re more than just part of the team — you’re part of the experience, shaping the moments and memories our guests will carry with them long after they leave.
As the first point of contact, you’ll play a key role in shaping our guests’ stay, offering a warm welcome and support that turn good visits into great ones. Here’s what you’ll be doing:
- Using your approachable personality to build great connections with guests.
- Demonstrating your confidence in handling check-ins, bookings and guest requests.
- You’ll bring great communication skills and love sharing your local know-how to help guests make the most of their stay.
- Being a team player who’s flexible and happy to help wherever needed.
- Assisting the Food and Beverage department, clearing tables, stocking the buffet and providing a consistent level of guest service.
- Assisting the Housekeeping department in preparing rooms for guests' arrival, dealing with linen and maintaining a high level of cleanliness and tidiness in the storages.
We live by our values – and we’d love you to bring them to life every day:
- Open - You’re friendly and welcoming, helping guests feel right at home.
- Nimble – You adapt quickly, handling whatever the day brings with ease.
