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.

The historic Hotel Sorrento is a cultural anchor in Seattle. From the fireside salons filled with local legends, to a spirit sighting, or the rooftop views of a growing city, the Sorrento has always been where Seattle gathers to celebrate and connect; a landmark with decades of stories, well cared-for guests, and deep roots in the neighborhood it calls home. Steps from downtown Seattle, the hotel enjoys one of the city's most enviable settings: walkable to Pike Place Market, the waterfront, the convention center, and the region's best dining, all while retaining the quiet charm of a tree-lined enclave.

About The Role:

Complete the night audit procedures in a thorough and timely manner in order to accurately report the sales and operating statistics for each day. The Night Auditor will assist other members of the Front Office Team with the performance of all front office duties and will contribute to the overall guest experience in the same ways that Guest Services Agents do on a daily basis.

• Perform all End-of-Day functions, including reviewing and reconciling of all Front Desk postings, all outlet tickets, all restaurant and banquet postings, and rolling over the accounting software, PMS and batching credit card transactions. Ensure that all reports and account journals are balanced.

• Monitor hotel interior and exterior cameras regularly for security and safety.
• Restock back-office Housekeeping and Front Desk supplies and prepare morning lobby coffee service.
