- You’ll enjoy using tech – we have lots of it to make your life easier and our guests experience more seamless
- You’ll love people – and as a result, have great interpersonal and communication skills
- Details? You love them! You’ll be incredibly attentive with guests as a result
- Flexible and able to remain focused on results under pressure and to challenging deadlines
