Manchester, United Kingdom Locke Full time

**Be you. At work.**

Here at Locke, we create spaces where you can be you - and we don’t just mean our design-led aparthotels. From front desk to back office, on-the-ground to behind-the-scenes, our team makes Locke what it is. Forget demographics: we’re building a community of the culturally curious. The forward-thinking. The ever-questioning.

Locke is growing. With new openings across the UK and Europe coming up, we’re at an exciting time in our young life. Want to get stuck in? Roll up your sleeves and let’s go.

We're looking for a part-time Event Host to join our team at Whitworth Locke on a 6-month Fixed Term Contract.

**The role.**

Are you a natural host? A people person with next-level organisational skills? Do you get a kick from creating a seamless, welcoming experience?

Reporting to the Assistant General Manager, you’ll be a key member of the events and front of house team and the face of the Locke brand. It’ll be up to you to make our event organisers and guests feel at home from the minute they arrive, until the minute they leave (if they can bring themselves to do that ).

**What it looks like;**
- Creating tell-your-mates experiences that makes guests want to keep coming back
- Setting up, breaking down and running the day-to-day event operations
- Being a friendly face and go-to person for guests, organisers and visitors
- Being empowered to use your initiative when dealing with guest complaints or operational challenges
- Being an active member of the team in meetings and development sessions
- Supporting the management team in ensuring our spaces stay looking fresh
- Liaising with contractors and suppliers

**What you'll need;**
- Experience in events or a customer-facing role
- Intuitive customer service
- Natural influencing skills with a knack for managing expectations
- Proven sales ability
- Reliable decision-making, with impeccable attention to detail

**Values you’ll share;**
- Courage to question, evolve and be human
- Curiosity to seek out innovation, change and creativity
- Confidence to challenge convention and look for better ways to do and be
- Accountability and the desire to empower those around you
- Freedom to be yourself at work, just as much as at play
- Acceptance that perfection doesn’t exist and no one has a monopoly on good ideas
- Recognition of humanity in yourself and others to learn fast, evolve and grow

In return we offer you a **bonus scheme, holidays (including the option to buy more if you want them), wellbeing benefits (Cash Plan and an Employee Assistance Programme), free nights in our properties, awesome recognition schemes, pension (the tax efficient way), company sick pay and further benefits** tailored to your individual needs.

**When and Where?**

We believe in working flexibly - this includes flexibility in work location, working days (including weekends and bank holidays in operations) and working hours. This may be ad hoc or permanent flexibility. Ask your recruiting manager or see our careers page for more information.

**Please be aware that this is a part-time role where you will be working 15 hours per week.**

**Please note that this position is a 6-month Fixed Term Contract.**
