Public Area Attendant
Do you like keep busy and moving? Do you like to be helpful and part of a team? Do you have an eye for clean and making things look sharp – floors shining and brass gleaming?

Then you will be very happy working in housekeeping with our friendly hard working team so that when guests use our public areas (lobby, restrooms, corridors, etc.) they are wowed. In the role of Public Area (Lobby) Attendant you will:
- Focus on Details – ensure the public areas are clean and tidy. Be sure to report anything missing or in need of repair
- Be Organized – ensure any areas assigned to you, e.g. (public restrooms, the fitness center, etc.) are kept stocked, clean and crisp.
- Be a Team Player – help your coworkers by pitching as needed, e.g. taking on houseperson duties if needed or folding sheets in laundry.
- Be a Housekeeping Ambassador – Share a warm greeting and a smile with all the guests you encounter (and hopefully they will smile and say hello right back). Answer their questions if you can or if you cannot, direct them (or better yet take them!) to someone who can.
- Be a Safety & Security Agent – follow your hotel’s established safety and security policies & procedures. Anticipate problems and call management as needed.
