Job Description

Courtyard by Marriott Paramus is part of Marriott International, a renowned global leader in the hospitality industry committed to delivering exceptional guest experiences. Located in Paramus, New Jersey, this hotel is designed specifically to meet the needs of business travelers while also welcoming leisure guests. Marriott International is recognized for its dedication to diversity, equal employment opportunities, and providing a supportive, inclusive work environment that fosters career growth and personal development. Courtyard by Marriott focuses on innovating the hotel experience to empower guests with convenience and comfort, with a strong emphasis on customer service excellence.

The position available is a full-time, non-management role within the Housekeeping and Laundry department. This role pays $18.50 per hour and requires availability on weekends and holidays, which are preferred to meet the operational demands of the hotel. The Housekeeping Expert, or Guest Environment Expert, plays a critical role in maintaining the cleanliness and overall look of the hotel. Beyond just cleaning rooms and making beds, this role is about creating a memorable and unique experience for guests by ensuring that every space in the hotel reflects hospitality and care. These professionals are empowered to be proactive and responsive to guest needs, managing everything from replenishing supplies to handling guest requests promptly.

Responsibilities extend to cleaning guest rooms and common areas, restocking cleaning carts, and performing tasks such as moving, lifting, and placing items under 50 pounds without assistance. Flexibility, physical stamina, and attention to detail are vital, as the environment requires continuous movement, standing, sitting, and walking for extended periods. The role also emphasizes adherence to company protocols for safety, confidentiality, quality standards, and maintaining a professional appearance and communication style. Meeting these expectations is fundamental to deliver guest satisfaction and ensure smooth hotel operations.

Courtyard by Marriott Paramus offers a vibrant workplace culture that values diversity, talent, and the unique experiences that each team member brings. Employees have access to a range of benefits designed to support their well-being, career ambitions, and life balance. The company values a workplace where all employees feel welcome and are provided with equal opportunities to succeed. This role is ideal for individuals passionate about hospitality, who thrive in a collaborative team environment and seek to contribute to an established brand known for quality and innovation. Joining the team means becoming part of a global network where you can achieve your best work and grow personally and professionally while helping guests enjoy their stay to the fullest.

As part of Marriott International’s family of brands, Courtyard by Marriott Paramus is not just a place to work but a place to build your career in hospitality. The organization focuses on continuous improvement and learning, encouraging team members to develop their skills and advance their careers within the company. If you are enthusiastic about providing outstanding guest service, enjoy working in a dynamic and varied environment, and want to be part of creating extraordinary experiences for travelers, this opportunity is the perfect fit. You will play an essential role in helping Courtyard meet its commitment to guest satisfaction and operational excellence, contributing to a hotel environment where guests feel valued and cared for.
