Job Description

The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans, located at 921 Canal St, New Orleans, Louisiana, is a prestigious luxury hotel renowned for providing exceptional hospitality experiences. As part of the Marriott International family, The Ritz-Carlton brand sets the global standard for rare and special luxury service. Known for its commitment to excellence and attentiveness, The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans prides itself on delivering care and comfort that leaves lasting impressions on guests. At this award-winning property, the staff are dedicated professionals who curate memorable experiences through thoughtful and compassionate service that exceeds expectations. This hotel is not only a destination but an embodiment of elegance and hospitality traditions that are recognized and celebrated worldwide.

The role offered is for a full-time Runner on the overnight shift within the Rooms and Guest Services Operations category. This non-management position pays $17.00 per hour and requires dedication to supporting the smooth operations of the hotel by assisting across multiple departments including housekeeping, engineering, banquets, restaurants, and the front office.

This role embodies much more than the physical task of transporting items; it represents a commitment to creating an extraordinary experience that is unique and memorable for each guest. Runners must maintain a high level of professionalism in their uniform, appearance, and communication, while upholding the company’s quality standards and policies. Given the physical nature of the job, Runners are expected to be mobile, standing, walking, and moving around the hotel often, even navigating confined spaces and stairs. They must be physically capable of handling items weighing up to 55 pounds, including lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling. Precision, efficiency, and teamwork are crucial as Runners collaborate with various departments to anticipate and fulfill needs at pivotal moments.

Working at The Ritz-Carlton also means embracing the Gold Standards that form the core of the hotel’s culture and operational philosophy. These standards include the Employee Promise, Credo, and Service Values which guide each team member to deliver service graciously and thoughtfully every day. The Ritz-Carlton fosters an inclusive work environment where diversity is celebrated, and all associates have equal opportunity for development. This role offers an excellent career path within a globally recognized hotel brand. Joining The Ritz-Carlton means becoming part of an amazing global team where you can do your best work, begin your true purpose, belong to a community that values you, and become the best version of yourself through learning and growth.

In summary, the Runner position at The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans is a critical role that supports luxury hospitality by ensuring timely and efficient service delivery.
