Drive Safely. Welcome Warmly. Make Every Trip Better.

For many of our guests, their experience with our hotel begins before they ever reach the front desk.

It might start with a friendly smile at the airport, a safe ride to the hotel, help with their luggage, or a helpful recommendation about where to go while they're in town.

We're looking for a Van/Shuttle Driver who understands that this role is about much more than getting from Point A to Point B.

You're a driver, a first impression, a helpful resource, and a hospitality ambassador.

If you enjoy meeting people, staying active, driving safely, and making someone's journey a little easier, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

What You'll Do

• Safely transport hotel guests to and from the airport terminal and other designated locations.
• Follow all applicable traffic regulations and maintain safe driving practices.
• Provide prompt, friendly, and courteous transportation service.
• Greet guests warmly and sincerely upon arrival.
• Open vehicle doors for arriving and departing guests.
• Assist guests with luggage, packages, and other belongings.
• Load and unload luggage from cars, buses, vans, and carts.
• Maintain smooth traffic flow around the hotel entrance to ensure safe and convenient passenger and luggage loading and unloading.
• Park and retrieve guest vehicles when required, using claim tickets to ensure the correct vehicle is delivered.
• Respond quickly to guest questions and requests for assistance.
• Provide clear directions to hotel facilities, nearby attractions, and designated pickup/drop-off locations.
• Communicate hotel features and services to guests.
• Listen carefully to guest and associate requests and respond promptly.
• Work throughout the property as needed to assist guests and the Front Office team.
• Help create a welcoming and organized arrival and departure experience.
• Complete other job-related duties as assigned.

The role combines safe transportation with hands-on guest service, including vehicle assistance, luggage handling, directions, and maintaining an accessible hotel entrance. Van Shuttle Driver
