Does meeting people from other countries and making them feel at home make your heart beat faster? Are you a great listener and do you love finding solutions to challenges and requests? Then we have the perfect opportunity for you… start a new chapter in your career and join our INKredible team as our Front Office team member!
From the moment that you welcome our guests at the front office, till the moment they leave, you are the first point of contact for them in the hotel. You are a true INKredible ambassador. The highlights of your day are of course the check-ins and the check-outs, but you also enjoy personalizing every guest stay. Preparing personalized items for their special occasion, making suggestions on where to eat, play and experience unique adventures Amsterdam has to offer, is something that you love to do. As our Front Office team member you keep track of their preferences and communicate these to all relevant departments to ensure a flawless stay. Solving any guest issues that may arise is not something that you shy away from, on the contrary, solving problems is what gives you the most satisfaction. Ensuring that every guest leaves with the feeling that they cannot wait to return is what drives you every day.
INK Hotel Amsterdam – MGallery is a luxurious lifestyle hotel and owes its name to the rich history of the building, as former home of the Dutch newspaper ‘De Tijd’ where stories were conceived, written and brought to life in ink. Because of this INK Hotel is the place ‘Where stories are yet to be written’. Our restaurant PRESSROOM is the living room for our hotel guests and locals. We serve delicious dishes made by our INKredible kitchen staff and our bartenders create cocktails with their own personal touch.
