• Help ensure rooms and guest requests are properly coordinated with other departments.

• Monitor lobby and front desk conditions to maintain a professional and welcoming environment.

• Support Hilton Honors recognition, enrollments, and member benefits.

• Assist with operational issues and make sound decisions when management is not immediately available.

• Demonstrate a willingness to learn new duties and take on additional responsibilities as needed.

• Be willing to assist in multiple areas of the hotel based on operational needs.

• Maintain flexible and open availability, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays.

• Interested in learning multiple areas of hotel operations.

• A team player who is willing to step outside their normal responsibilities when the hotel needs support.

• Flexible and available based on the operational needs of the hotel.

• Interested in developing into a stronger hospitality leader.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous hotel front desk experience required.

• Experience using Hilton PEP strongly preferred.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

• Ability to multitask in a fast-paced hotel environment.

Our Ideal Front Desk Supervisor

We are looking for more than someone who can work the desk. We want someone who can lead the shift, take care of our guests, support the team, learn new responsibilities, and step in wherever the hotel needs them.

The right person will be eager to grow, willing to take on more responsibility, and interested in developing a deeper understanding of the overall hotel operation.
