Job description

The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance

When the sun goes down, you are the crucial link keeping the entire hotel together. This is a hands-on leadership role where you will support the Night Manager by running the overnight audit, securing the building, and jumping in to serve drinks or check in weary guests, all while keeping your team motivated and focused until dawn.

Why Village?

At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences for our guests and each other. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers.Previous experience is great, but your attitude and energy matter much more to us. If you are friendly, positive, love working with people, and enjoy being part of a busy team, we will give you all the support, training, and opportunities you need. Because it really does take a Village.

How the Village Thrives
