Do you love creating the perfect dinner party?
The Armadillo resort team is at the heart of all our guest’s experiences, representing the Armadillo brand throughout the resort, delivering luxury service to the highest standards.
Our Chalet Hosts are incredibly important to the guest experience, providing in-chalet concierge, providing the right ambience and overall feel during the stay, while providing daily housekeeping to the highest standards. The Chalet Host role can be demanding, and varied day to day, with guests’ communication prior to arrival to ensure we deliver a tailored experience.
Chalet Hosts work alongside a Chalet Chef, across a variety of luxury properties. Schedules are changeable depending on guest bookings, chalets booked, and check-in times.
A successful candidate will need to have strong communication skills, with the ability to interact with guests and team members of all ages and cultures. An outgoing, positive personality will suit the demanding nature of this role. Time management skills, and working calmly in a pressurized environment, while taking pride in the small details that elevate the guest experience are also must-haves.
