Looking for a stable, year-round role where you can work independently while helping to look after our guests and hotel overnight? Whether you're looking to develop your hospitality career or simply find a role where you can become part of a friendly team, Daish’s Holidays could be the perfect fit for you.

We’re looking for a friendly, reliable and responsible Night Porter to help provide a welcoming service to our guests while maintaining the security and safety of the hotel during the night.

What will you be doing?

As a Night Porter, you'll play an important role in keeping our hotel safe, secure and welcoming while most of our guests are asleep. You'll continue the great service provided by our daytime reception team and be an important point of contact for guests throughout the night.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Carrying out front-of-house duties, including welcoming guests and responding to their needs.
• Providing a friendly, professional and efficient service throughout the night.

• Following the correct procedures in the event of an emergency, including fire safety procedures and situations where a guest becomes ill.
• Following lone-working and “buddy” contact procedures to ensure your own safety while working at night.
• Following company Health & Safety procedures and helping to maintain a safe environment for guests and colleagues.
• Assisting guests with luggage when required.
• Ensuring any issues or incidents are reported appropriately to Hotel Management.

• Confident responding to guest requests and providing assistance when needed.
• Willing to follow Health & Safety, emergency and lone-working procedures.
• Positive and committed to creating a great experience for our guests.

At Daish’s, we believe that our people are just as important as our guests. That's why we offer more than just a job.

When you join us, you'll benefit from:

• Stable, all-year-round employment – we don't close for the winter.

• £100 refer-a-friend bonus, shared between you and your friend.
• An extra paid day off for your birthday.
• Access to mental wellbeing and financial support to help you when you need it.
• A friendly, inclusive and supportive working environment.
• Staff, Friends & Family Holiday Discount – enjoy a Daish’s holiday from just £105 for you, your family and friends, including accommodation, breakfast, dinner, coach travel and entertainment.
