Job description
why working with us is different
We won’t put you in a box as a ‘receptionist’ or ‘food and beverage’ person. With us, you’ll become a champion multitasker – customer service, receptionist, concierge, barista, mixologist, logistics and more. You will be a citizenM ambassador, free to be yourself to do the best job you can. We believe in making work fun. If you’re having a great experience, so will our guests.
We’re proud to put hospitality back in the hospitality industry, and that’s because of our ambassadors. We don’t hire them for their skills; we hire them for their attitude. We seek people who feel great about making others smile and we see the results in our happy guests.
your typical citizenM shift could include:
- Making sure everyone gets a warm welcome as soon as they walk in;
- Helping guests at the self check-in kiosks (we have no reception desk);
- Preparing and serving hot and cold breakfast and meals;
- Brewing delicious coffee or mixing a signature cocktail;
- Being a secret concierge to the city, answering guests’ questions about the best places to visit, eat, shop or party;
- Maintaining the living room and the canteen clean, and arranging food displays for the following shift;
- Helping our guests with any requests or demands regarding our facilities (you may even get some new tech skills);
- Handling reservations in our property management system (PMS);
- Preparing societyM meeting rooms where applicable.
do you have what we’re looking for?
- To be successful at citizenM, you’ll need to have:
- A genuine touch: Treat all people as you would treat your best friends;
- A passionate attitude: Be collaborative and believe we are stronger working together. You are optimistic and spread good vibes.
And you’ll need to be:
- A smart thinker: You like to find simpler, better and bolder ways to do things. You are curious and believe no detail is too small.
- Real caring: You show empathy for people and the planet. You are open to other points of view and experiences that bring out the best in me. You create positive change.
- Fluent in English. Other language abilities are welcome too!
Please note that we are only able to consider applicants with the right to work in the UK.
