What we’re looking for…

• Most important is that you know how to provide a great and memorable guest experience – whether it’s for someone staying with us or just stepping in for a drink or a bite to eat.
• Previous experience in hospitality in an Assistant Front Office Manager role is an advantage but not a must.
• Passionate about team development and a demonstrated experience in coaching and developing your team.
• You’ve got plenty of experience dealing with different types of requests successfully.
• Experience with using Micros Fidelio Opera or a similar property management system.
• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• 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 stuff 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.
