Guest Service Agent

At Crowne Plaza® Hotels & Resorts our goal is to make business travel work. We look for people who are dynamic, confident and ambitious; people who excel in their role and help our guests succeed too

That’s where you come in. When you’re part of the Crowne Plaza brand, you’re more than just a job title, that’s why we’re looking for a Part Time Guest Service Agent who can make our guests’ hotel stay a seamless one they'll always remember.

There’s nothing complicated about dealing with business people.

They’re just people. Doing business.

By day, international marketing superhero. By night: fluffy bath robe and a box set.

The moment a guest steps into our hotel, they walk into a genuinely memorable experience. As a Guest Service Agent, you’ll not only be the person they rely on to handle transactions, offer local insights and anticipate every detail of a seamless experience... you’ll also create the warm atmosphere that makes our guests feel at home.

**Every day is different, but you’ll mostly be**:

- Daring to connect
- be the one to make the first move with a guest; say hello first, take action first.
- Adapting to the moment
- read a guests mood, change according to what they may need in that moment.
- Relating to our guests needs
- ensure we know what is important to our guests and focus on perfecting this.
- Acknowledging IHG Rewards Club members and returning guests in person or over the phone.
- Taking, managing, and receiving payments for guest bookings.
- Making the check-in and check-out process feel swift and seamless.
- Being our guests’ trusted contact - helping with everything from bill queries to restaurant recommendations.

**What we need from you**:

- Previous experience in a Front Office position or with Opera (PMS) is highly regarded.
- Confidence to make the first move and Dare to Connect.
- Communication skills - guests will need to come to you with concerns as well as compliments, so you’ll be easy to talk to.
- Your problem-solving skills will turn issues into opportunities so every guest leaves with great memories.
- Availability to work a rotating roster, including shifts on weekends and Public Holidays.
- Fluency in the local language - extra language skills would be great, but not essential.
- Literate and tech-savvy - you’ll need a good grasp of reading, writing, basic maths and computer skills.

Applicants must have unrestricted Australian working rights.

**What you can expect from us**:
We give our people everything they need to succeed. From a competitive salary that rewards all your hard work to a wide range of benefits designed to help you live your best work life - including free duty meals, a full uniform, impressive room discounts and some of the best training in the business.
