Responsibilities
Consistently provide an exceptional experience to anyone you interact with on-site, so our guests and residents walk away thinking "I have to tell my friends about this place!"
Jump in and communicate with your fellow on-site and off-site property team members to make things happen - work together, provide support and keep our "one team" mentality alive so everyone wins
Maintain a safe, secure, and compliant environment for all by adhering to established policies, procedures and expectations as they roll out. Ask questions and make sure you understand their impact - we don't mess around with safety, service and operational standards!
Stay plugged in to our internal systems (there are a few!) to keep things moving. Whether it's logging a maintenance request, coordinating with the housekeeping team or auditing a check-in, you'll help the entire property team stay connected across shifts to ensure the property runs smoothly
When the business calls for it (and some days, it will!), ensure every guest gets checked into their assigned room and set up for a great stay - always following Placemakr protocols, collecting payment details and charging cards appropriately so the process is smooth from the start
Respond to and action on guest requests - whether it's providing additional linens, extra supplies, a minor repair or clogged toilet - moving with urgency and genuine care
Restock housekeeping carts, prepare amenities, stock vending machines and handle whatever else may be needed to set your housekeeping team (and entire property team) up to crush it during the next shift
Keep all shared spaces looking sharp and up to standards by tackling cleaning and removing trash from lobbies, restrooms, elevators, break rooms and gyms - wherever it's needed!
Wrap up your shift with a thorough and effective handover so the next Guest Experience Associate can hit the ground running without missing a beat and ensure a seamless operation
