This position pertains to a part-time, non-management role within the Rooms & Guest Services Operations category at the Falls Church Marriott Fairview Park. The role of Runner is vital to the smooth functioning of hotel operations and directly impacts the overall guest experience. Unlike typical transport or delivery roles, this position focuses on creating memorable and unique experiences for guests by ensuring operational fluidity across various hotel departments.

Whether it’s delivering amenities directly to a guest’s room or providing essential assistance to different departments, Runners ensure that the hotel operates seamlessly.

The role demands physical stamina and attentiveness, as Runners will be on their feet for extended periods and navigate various hotel's settings including narrow and confined spaces and multiple stairways or ramps. Attention to detail is paramount; Runners must read and verify information accurately in various formats including small print, visually inspect tools and equipment, and adopt a hands-on approach by lifting and moving objects up to 55 pounds independently. This dynamic position is fundamental to maintaining the high standards of Marriott’s hospitality, safety, and quality. Employees in this role are expected to adhere strictly to company policies, uphold confidentiality, maintain professional appearance, and communicate effectively.

The pay range for this position is from $17.98 to $19.33 per hour, providing a competitive wage for individuals seeking part-time employment in a reputable and supportive hospitality environment.
