Job Description

The Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach is a prestigious hotel located on the picturesque shores of Huntington Beach, California. Renowned for its stunning ocean views, exceptional guest services, and vibrant atmosphere, this establishment has long been a favorite destination for travelers and locals alike. As an integral part of the global Hyatt Hotels and Resorts brand, the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach is committed to delivering unparalleled hospitality experiences that combine comfort, style, and a genuine care for people. The hotel boasts numerous amenities including luxurious accommodations, premium dining options, event spaces, and recreational facilities that cater to diverse guest needs. Its prime beachside location provides unique opportunities for customers to indulge in the beauty of the Pacific Ocean while enjoying world-class service and amenities. The hotel upholds values of inclusion, diversity, and professional growth, fostering a supportive and dynamic work environment for all colleagues.

The hotel is opening a new restaurant called SHOR, crafted to elevate beachside dining experiences to an entirely new level. Featuring shimmering views of the Pacific Ocean and situated mere steps from the warm sands of Huntington Beach, SHOR aims to provide an extraordinary atmosphere where guests can enjoy memorable meals, exceptional service, and the vibrant coastal ambiance. The restaurant opening represents an exciting expansion of the Hyatt Regency’s culinary portfolio and seeks enthusiastic and professional individuals to join its opening team as part of an energetic and friendly crew. This role offers seasonal employment with flexible scheduling to accommodate both full-time and part-time colleagues interested in joining this innovative venture.

The position of Seasonal Server at SHOR is a frontline customer service role that embodies the spirit of Hyatt’s core purpose: "We Care for People So They Can Be Their Best." Servers will be responsible for ensuring guests feel welcomed from the moment they are seated, taking precise and attentive food and beverage orders, and consistently checking in with guests to guarantee satisfaction throughout their dining experience. The role demands excellent communication skills, the ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment, and physical stamina to perform duties including lifting, pushing, and pulling moderate weights. Given the outdoor, beachside setting, candidates must be comfortable working under various weather conditions including direct sunlight.

This opportunity is ideal for individuals with prior serving experience or those eager to develop their skills in a professional, hospitality-focused environment. The position offers more than just a job — it provides a community where diversity, inclusion, and personal growth are championed. With comprehensive training, employee development tools via the Hyatt Learning platform, and a strong potential for career progression within over 700 Hyatt properties in the United States, this role can be a stepping stone to a rewarding hospitality career. Additionally, the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach supports its employees with attractive benefits such as discount hotel stays for friends and family, tuition reimbursement, complimentary meals, and access to an extensive network of partner perks.

Hyatt places a significant emphasis on well-being and professional development, offering retirement plans and stock purchase programs as part of its commitment to caring for its people. With a long-standing reputation recognized by FORTUNE Magazine as one of the "100 Best Companies to Work For" in the United States, Hyatt fosters a nurturing workplace culture where all qualified candidates are welcomed without discrimination. Whether you are passionate about guest service, seek to grow within the hospitality industry, or want to be part of a vibrant team in an unmatched location, the Seasonal Server role at SHOR is a fantastic opportunity to bring your unique talents to life while delivering memorable experiences to guests by the Pacific coastline.
