The position available is full-time and non-management, offering candidates an opportunity to join a distinguished luxury hotel that prioritizes employee growth, development, and delivering memorable guest experiences.

This role is centered on administrative support within the hotel, specifically focusing on managing and retrieving information from computerized databases to update guest files, reservations, and respond to inquiries. The successful candidate will be responsible for transmitting information via computers, e-mail, or fax, and operating standard office equipment.

Interaction with guests is a critical function, requiring the staff to greet guests per company standards, anticipate and address their service needs, assist individuals with disabilities, and express genuine appreciation. Effective communication skills are necessary to use clear, professional language, prepare and review accurate documents, and handle telephone protocols appropriately.

Teamwork and professional interpersonal relationships are encouraged to support common objectives and positively respond to colleagues’ concerns. The job includes some physical duties such as moving objects weighing up to 10 pounds without assistance and performing other reasonable tasks assigned by supervisors. The position embraces Marriott International's commitment to equal employment opportunities, valuing diverse backgrounds and experiences while abiding by legal protections for veterans, individuals with disabilities, and other protected groups.

Joining The Ritz-Carlton means becoming part of a global luxury hospitality leader that upholds 'The Gold Standards'—a framework that guides the culture and daily operations. This culture empowers employees to be creative, kind, and compassionate, fostering pride in their work and teams.
