Who We Are

The Heathman is Portland's magnet for artistic minds. Since 1927, the Heathman's unique atmosphere of cultured comfort has served as a muse for artists, creators, collaborators, thinkers, dreamers and doers. With its prime placement in Portland's cultural district, the Heathman is distinguished by reputation as a discerning retreat for the global citizen, and a haven for creative inspiration.

Heathman Hotel is managed by Aparium Hotels. Aparium was founded in 2011 to bring lifestyle service and accommodations to underserved yet distinct and important cities while maintaining and celebrating the unadulterated character of each. Each hotel in our portfolio is an individual, representing the People, Place, and Character of its community. Driven by the belief that the poetics of their surroundings should fuel all hospitality experiences, Aparium was born with an intense focus on unearthing the unforgettable moments unique to every city. Since its founding, Aparium has grown into a new kind of hotel brand, one that ventures off the beaten path, both geographically and philosophically. We are a sophisticated hotel brand known for our ability to combine the business acumen of large hospitality companies with the charm of boutique hotels, bringing the disparate forces together in bustling, growing markets.

Who You Are

Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is art + science to the how and what of preparing and caring for a hotel room. You enjoy the solitude of completing your daily board, but also love seeing the smile on a co-worker's face when they walk into their last room and find you've already made the bed! You are someone who understands the smallest details can make the biggest impact. You know hospital corners aren't just for hospitals, and the perfect crease on a bed sheet makes you smile. When you see a pair of loose shoes, you need to make sure they are perfectly aligned. You love feeling the warmth of freshly laundered linen. It doesn't matter where you are, you can't help yourself from refolding the bathroom towels. No matter how crazy your day was, you always find time to make sure your cart is ready for the next day.

THE ROLE

The House Attendant reports to the Director of Operations and Housekeeping Leadership team, working to maintain the consistent cleanliness and organization of our public spaces. It is critical that you possess an eye for detail and can maintain our standards of cleanliness.

You will actively develop trusting and transparent relationships with your peers, both in the department and throughout the hotel. You will have the opportunity to work with a phenomenal group of individuals with whom collaboration, humbleness, and open-minds are the norm-no egos are allowed.

What You Will Do

• Uphold and role model the company's principles of People, Place, and Character, while embodying our values that drive collaboration, intuitive service, and translocal hospitality.
• Adhere to the prescribed departmental sequence of service and practice proper safety protocols while cleaning guest rooms, stocking linen and terry, and completing assigned checklists.
• Collaborate with housekeeping leadership, demonstrating a united front as a team committed to providing the best possible guest experience.
• Take pride in your work, strictly adhering to health, safety, and sanitary guidelines.
• Work in an organized fashion following the sequence of service with the utmost respect for your equipment and workspace.
• Demonstrate a professional sense of urgency while in the guest rooms and public space to provide a thoughtful guest experience by keeping spaces clean and well organized.
• Foster open lines of communication within the department by actively participating in daily line ups and monthly housekeeping all staff meetings, maintaining a transparent dialogue among the team to voice ideas and concerns, while course-correcting any missed opportunities.
• Actively participate in feedback sessions with Housekeeping Leadership to further develop your skill set and improve upon housekeeping standards and practices.
• Maintain regular communication with the housekeeping leadership team to ensure alignment on priorities, understanding that flexibility with your responsibilities is paramount to support a successful operation.
• Observe conditions of furniture, walls, trim work and carpeting and report anything substandard to the housekeeping leadership and/or engineering department to make corrections and improvements as needed.
  
  

What You Will Need
