Our work goes beyond simply serving food at a table for guests to enjoy until they request the check. In addition, we aim to create an experience that is memorable and unique (beyond food and beverage). Our Guest Service Experts proactively deliver a full range of services focused on enhancing the guest experience. Whether setting tables, communicating with the kitchen, interacting with and serving guests, or cleaning work and storage areas, Guest Service Experts ensure every transaction becomes part of the guest experience.
Regardless of their specific role, certain fundamentals are essential for success: creating a safe workplace, following company guidelines and procedures, maintaining quality standards, and ensuring professional appearance, personal presentation, and communication. Guest Service Experts are constantly on the move (standing, sitting, walking for extended periods, navigating sloped, uneven, and sometimes slippery surfaces), reviewing menus (reading and verifying information), and performing various tasks (moving, lifting, carrying, pushing, and placing items weighing under 50 pounds without assistance; reaching overhead and bending down; performing movements requiring knee bending, twisting, stretching, and stooping). It is essential that Guest Service Experts consistently perform these tasks—and other reasonable tasks assigned—to ensure guest satisfaction and smooth hotel operations.
