3 weeks ago
Job Id: 111 # of Openings: 0 Guest Services Manager Reports to General Manager; position is exempt WHO YOU ARE You are someone who is obsessed with hospitality: it is quite natural for you to walk into a hotel and fluff every pillow you see, judge the level of cleanliness, or ask the front desk what type of system they are using. You get excited about how amenities are packaged, a guest service story created by an employee's intuition, and can strip a bed faster than the best housekeeper. You enjoy casual sophistication and realize the concept of luxury has evolved to be approachable and loathe heavily scripted interactions and cookie-cutter experiences. Your career experience is eclectic and dynamic and take great pride in having worked your way through a variety of rooms division roles. You are humble and understand the need to work side by side with others and take feedback seriously to improve upon processes. You love the collaborative environment you find in hotels and have a special place in your heart for the people and teams you have worked with and developed throughout your career. THE ROLE The Guest Services Manager sets the tone for the front-of-house guest experience of the hotel. This integral role leads the Guest Services department, ensuring that the service delivered to our guests is unique and memorable, meeting our high expectations. Though this is a management role, it is certainly not one in which you spend the entire day in the office doing paperwork. Instead, your day is spent where you are at your best: in the lobby with your team, delivering innovative guest experiences. The Guest Services Manager reports to the Director of Rooms, working together on how to deliver remarkable guest experiences. It is critical the person in this position possesses a diverse knowledge of Rooms Division operations and is willing to dive into the day-to-day operation, while balancing and directing the long-term goals of the hotel. You lead the team through your collaborative approach-you understand that the ability to act as a soldier is as critical as being a general. WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Foster open lines of communication within the department by helping to facilitate daily line ups, weekly division leadership meetings, and monthly departmental all staff meetings to create a transparent dialogue amongst the team to voice ideas and concerns, while addressing the department's key priorities
- Coach and mentor your team on development of their skill set, fostering an environment of continuous growth; effectively use corrective action to address root causes of issues, course-correcting any missed opportunities.
- Partner with Housekeeping and Engineering department heads to ensure hotel facilities and rooms are maintained in optimal condition, being emphatic about the smallest detail which may go unseen by the untrained eye.
- Partner with Director of Revenue to monitor all reservation channels, verifying that detailed reservation information is collected and handled properly according to standards and protocol.
- Champion departmental and hotel wide initiatives and best practices (e.g., Lobby Ambassador, Guest Profile, and Manager on Duty programs) by ensuring you take the time to communicate, train, and coach associates on the purpose of each initiative.
- Maintain regular communication with the Director of Hotel Operations to provide updates, discuss plans, communicate needs, and align on priorities, understanding that flexibility with your responsibilities is paramount to support a successful operation.
