Job Description
Residence Inn Ankeny is a well-established hotel located in the vibrant heart of The District at Prairie Trail, celebrating its 5th anniversary in October. As part of the Marriott brand, this hotel offers guests a comfortable and welcoming environment, combining the consistency of a renowned hotel chain with the unique charm of a local destination. The Residence Inn Ankeny caters to business travelers, tourists, and local visitors alike, providing excellent accommodations with a focus on quality service and guest satisfaction. The hotel is known for its commitment to creating an inviting atmosphere where guests feel at home, supported by a dedicated team of hospitality professionals.
The role of Night Auditor at Residence Inn Ankeny is a full-time, overnight position designed for individuals who are night owls and enjoy working with numbers. This position operates from Monday to Thursday, from 9 pm to 7 am, making it ideal for those who prefer a non-traditional work schedule. The Night Auditor plays a critical role in maintaining the smooth financial and operational flow of the hotel during overnight hours. This includes managing reservations, checking guests in and out, addressing guests’ needs, and conducting the nightly audit process.
The Night Auditor is responsible for preparing end-of-day financial reports that are essential for Marriott and the hotel’s corporate office, ensuring all accounts are balanced and accurate. This role also includes light cleaning and organizing tasks within the front desk and lobby areas, emphasizing a clean and professional environment for guests and staff alike. While previous Marriott hotel experience and familiarity with FOSSE systems are advantageous, the hotel is willing to train the right candidate who demonstrates a commitment to learning and excellent customer service skills.
This position not only requires a keen attention to detail and strong numerical skills but also demands a customer-oriented approach, as the Night Auditor serves as the hotel manager on duty during overnight hours. Responsibilities extend to enforcing safety procedures, managing guest security, and ensuring overall guest satisfaction, making it a vital position within the hotel’s operational team. This role is perfect for candidates seeking stability, competitive wages, and a supportive work environment with opportunities for growth within the Kinseth Hotel Corporation.
