New York, New York, United States Paramount Hotel Full time

Front Desk Agent –
The Overview

At Paramount, we are obsessed in delivering outstanding service through
a personal touch. As a Front Desk Agent, you must be part of ensuring that the
Front Office department is run smoothly ensuring that there is a relentless
desire to "wow" our customers at every opportunity, ensuring that customers'
needs are exceeded.

Who Are We

Generator is on a
journey. Appropriate, given that we're a shared accommodation lifestyle brand.
The journey began in London, swung through a heap of European capitals on its
way to dominating the world. Generator burst onto the scene in the Americas with
the launch of Generator Miami and Washington DC and most recently took aim at
the country's biggest markets (NYC, LA, Miami and Chicago) with the acquisition
of Freehand Hotels.

No biggie. Fast Company named us one of the top 50 most innovative global companies.
We, of course, agree.

Our spaces are safe and
seriously social, in the proudest part of the beating heart of the cities we
love. Cultural action, creative pulse and an outstanding way to waste some of
the finite time the universe has given you - that's what Generator offers.
Holds true for staff and visitors equally, and while chic design is always the
backdrop, every Generator in every destination reflects the unique beat of that
city's heart.

BEING YOURSELF is the key to bringing the Generator story
and brand to life.

About Paramount
Hotel New York

Paramount Hotel is a New York City landmark located
just steps from Times Square. Constructed in the French Renaissance style by
Thomas W. Lamb in 1927, the building reflects the theatrical character of its
neighborhood. The bustle of the street disappears as you step inside - with its
two-story lobby, reflective fireplace, dramatic lighting, and rich textures, it
sets the stage for a hip, indulgent experience. Recently updated but retaining
its historical charm, the Paramount Hotel is standing out – as the only hotel
near Broadway NYC with genuine personality.

Kind of a "no brainer" to take this iconic hotel
with us on our Generator journey. While
making sure to keep its rich character - we are giving it the best parts of our
Generator DNA in order to transform this into a social driven, loud and
welcoming community hot spot (with some kick-ass parties & events, of
course).
