Company Description

Not everyone is built for the 9 to 5. If you're someone who comes alive at night, loves people, and enjoys being the person others can rely on, this could be the perfect opportunity.

At Novotel Wellington, we're looking for a passionate and motivated Night Auditor to join our Front Office team in a full-time permanent role. Located in the heart of Wellington, our hotel welcomes guests from around New Zealand and the world, creating a fast-paced and rewarding environment where no two shifts are ever the same.

As the face of the hotel overnight, you'll play a vital role in delivering exceptional guest experiences while helping ensure our daily operations run smoothly behind the scenes.

You'll be the friendly face greeting late arrivals, assisting guests throughout the night, and ensuring everything is set up for success the following day. Your responsibilities will include:

You'll be rostered across nights, weekends and public holidays as required, making this a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety and thrives outside of traditional business hours.

Qualifications

• Take initiative and remain calm under pressure.
• Available to work overnight shifts from 11.00pm and on a rotating roster.
• Hold an LCQ qualification.
• A current DM Certificate is essential, or the ability to obtain one (requires LCQ plus 3 months' supervisory experience in a licensed premises in NZ).
