Job description
Hi, I’m Brittney and I’m a day/night receptionist at Hotel Jakarta Amsterdam. WLuckily the hotel is become more and more busy and therefore we could use extra help from new colleagues at our Front office! To give you a good idea of what this job at the Front Office looks like, I would like to take you on a journey through my day.
The most enjoyable part of my job is the culture. In hotel Jakarta we want to be happy and unburden our guests, but we are approachable, open and spontaneous. I am allowed to own (to a certain extent ;)) and have fun to our own natural way service not only we, but also our guests more.
This position also includes night shifts, normally not the most popular shift, but instead of doing night audits and reporting, I am working on paying extra attention to our VIPs and preparing the arrivals. I make an inventory for the TD Housekeeping, breakfast and all other departments. The advantage of this is that the team that works everywhere at night is the same team that works during the day and we can keep the service level.
Finally, it’s just really nice that our guests come in and are already happy and cheerful from our hotel and especially the subtropical garden. All we have to do at reception is service and have fun with our guests to complete the experience!
