• You are known for your uncanny ability to remember names and faces and genuinely love connecting with new people (and their four legged friends).
• You bring kindness, professionalism and composure to every interaction - even when things get a little chaotic!
• Experience within a premium hospitality, hotel, or private members' club environment is preferred.
