Job description

Why us?

At The Ben, West Palm Beach, every corner tells a story, and every connection creates opportunity. Inspired by the legacy of Byrd “Birdie” Dewey and her iconic Ben Trovato estate, our Autograph Collection hotel blends modern luxury with creativity, sophistication, and a spirit of individuality that feels Exactly Like Nothing Else.

Perched along the Intracoastal Waterway in the heart of downtown West Palm Beach, The Ben is more than a destination—it is a place where exceptional hospitality, meaningful connections, and memorable experiences come together. From Proper Grit, our signature whisky and supper club-inspired restaurant, to Spruzzo, our rooftop Mediterranean lounge with sweeping waterfront views, every space reflects the unique character and energy of our hotel.

At The Ben, luxury is more than a standard—it is a mindset. It is reflected in how we present ourselves, communicate with one another, anticipate guest needs, and take pride in even the smallest details. We believe exceptional hospitality begins with our people, and every associate, regardless of their role, contributes to creating an environment where guests feel genuinely welcomed and cared for.

We are looking for individuals who bring passion, creativity, professionalism, and a genuine desire to make a difference. Here, you will be part of a team that values individuality, celebrates collaboration, encourages growth, and empowers you to bring their best selves to work every day.

At The Ben, you don't simply work in luxury—you become part of what makes it exceptional.
