Housekeeping Supervisor

Full-Time | Hotel Operations | Leadership Opportunity

Join Our Leadership Team!

Are you a hands-on leader who takes pride in creating exceptional guest experiences and bringing out the best in your team? We're looking for an experienced and motivated Housekeeping Supervisor to help lead our hotel housekeeping operations and ensure every guest room and public space reflects the high standards our guests expect.

As a Housekeeping Supervisor, you'll be at the heart of the hotel's daily operation—leading Room Attendants, Housepersons, and Public Area Attendants while ensuring guestrooms are clean, inspected, properly maintained, and ready to welcome our guests.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys being out on the floor, leading a team, solving problems, and seeing the results of their work every day. You'll coordinate daily assignments, inspect guestrooms and public areas, monitor room readiness, address maintenance concerns, and work closely with Front Office, Engineering, Security, and other hotel departments to keep operations moving smoothly.

Most importantly, we're looking for a leader who knows that great housekeeping is about more than a clean room. It's about creating an environment where employees feel supported, standards are consistently upheld, and guests feel the difference.

If you're a strong communicator who can motivate a team, maintain high standards, and lead by example in a fast-paced hotel environment, we'd love to meet you.
