Job description

ASH Hotels designs, develops, owns and operates a very special collection of properties. In our world, a hotel is much more than a destination to meet, dine, or sleep. Rather, it is a dynamic site of imagery and emotions, interactions and sensations manifesting within the walls of a beautifully restored local legend - a living movie set. An ASH hotel is a connection to the past and a beacon for the future, layered in nuanced storytelling that invites exploration time and again.

Opening soon, our jewel box of a hotel stands on the iconic Venice Beach boardwalk, a lively stretch of California culture where a seemingly endless beach meets the dreams and schemes of this great city. Venice, CA was born from a grand vision, the ancient and hauntingly beautiful most serene republic reborn for pleasure on the wild pacific coast, where the spirit of spectacle, entertainment, and countercultural pursuits are as palpable as the salty air.

The ideal Houseperson is dependable, physically capable, and genuinely takes pride in being the behind-the-scenes support their team can always count on. They move efficiently between floors, keeping carts stocked and linen closets organized without being asked twice, and they pitch in wherever the department needs an extra hand, whether that's a deep clean, a furniture move, or a delivery to a guest room.
