As a full-service Hilton property, we are committed to delivering exceptional hospitality at every touchpoint. We are looking for a results-driven, guest-focused leader who thrives on the front lines.

• Monitor guest satisfaction and resolve issues promptly
• Maintain financial controls, assist with departmental budgeting, and take ownership of the gift shop
• Partner with other hotel departments to ensure seamless guest experiences
• Ensure compliance with all company policies, Hilton brand standards, and applicable laws

Qualifications:

• Proven success in a front office or guest services leadership role; Hilton experience preferred
• Strong familiarity with Hilton systems (PEP) is a plus
• College degree in Hospitality or Business Management preferred; equivalent work experience will be considered
• Excellent communication, leadership, and organizational skills
• Able to handle competing priorities in a fast-paced, high-guest-contact environment

Demonstrated ability to lead by example, mentor staff, and create a culture of service excellence

Flexible schedule is a must, this position may be required to work any shift, including early mornings, evenings, overnights, weekends, and holidays as needed

Weekend availability is expected; while time off requests are considered, this role typically includes two days off during the week.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a committed team at a landmark Hilton property. If you are a high-energy hospitality professional who believes in the power of presence and leading from the front, we invite you to apply.

Salary can be discussed based on experience.
