Newquay, United Kingdom Watergate Bay Hotel Full time

Watergate Bay Hotel – a place to
take your hospitality career to new heights. With a team that values
connection, flexibility, variety, and challenge, we're all about making a
meaningful impact on our guest’s holiday. Our three core values - We Care, We
Notice, We Change – show what it means to work for a hotel which goes above and
beyond for our team and guests. At Watergate Bay, we don't just provide a place
for our guests to rest their heads - we create memorable experiences that they'll
remember for a lifetime.

Does helping others have the
holiday they deserve bring you happiness? Do you love seeing guests smile
because of the effort you’ve made? Can you spot problems a mile off and work
fast to resolve them? Then you could be the House Host we’re looking for.

An unforgettable holiday
experience amidst two miles of sand, sea air and surf, Watergate Bay Hotel
offers a modern take on a beach break. For our guests, how their stay makes
them feel is crucial; cared about, looked after, welcome. It’s the heart and
soul of our ‘ski resort on a beach’ concept, made possible by the people on our
team. That’s where you come in…

The role:

We need attentive, outgoing individuals with a can-do attitude to make guests
feel at home, from first impression on the phone to final goodbye at the end of
their stay.

You’ll embody the spirit of
Watergate Bay with your friendly welcome, effortless charm and seamless
efficiency. And you’ll get a unique insight into all aspects of a busy,
award-winning hotel – working both behind the scenes in our brand-new head
office and across front desk for the hotel, swim club and beach lofts. This
balance of customer service and office life brings the best of both worlds,
boosts your skillset and ensures working days are never dull.

Guests will remember you for
underpinning the happiness that shaped their holiday, and you’ll thrive on it –
while taking the next step up the ladder of your hospitality career.

What your days could look like:

  • Assist with all aspects of a guest’s stay, from
    booking meals and treatments to helping with luggage and dealing with any
    queries or concerns. 
  • Go above and beyond guest expectations to provide a
    welcoming positive and comfortable experience, whether in person, over the

  • Understand everything involved in being a Host at
    Watergate Bay, from knowing the hotel inside out, to being fully fluent in all
    policies, systems and procedures so any guest query can be addressed the moment
    it’s made.
  • Lend a sympathetic ear if there are any complaints,
    record and handle them if you can or escalate to your House Manager.
  • Complete daily tasks quickly and efficiently,
    exactly when they are needed.
  • Act in accordance with Health & Safety
    laws.
  • Keep public spaces clean and tidy.
  • Be an active and engaged member of the team and
    always carry out duties to assist in the smooth running of the hotel as
    requested by your line manager.
  • Always live and breathe the
    Watergate Bay Hotel brand.
