Our work is not limited to serving food at a table for guests to enjoy until they request the check. Beyond that, we aim to create an experience that is memorable and unique (separate from food and beverage). Our Guest Service Experts take initiative in delivering a full range of services designed to enhance 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 your specific role, several fundamentals are essential to 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 under 50 pounds without assistance; reaching overhead and bending down; and performing movements requiring knee bending, twisting, stretching, and stooping). It is critical that Guest Service Experts consistently perform these tasks—and other reasonable tasks assigned—to ensure guest satisfaction and smooth hotel operations.
