We're recruiting for a Guest Services Associate to join a prestigious luxury hospitality destination near Yoxford. This is a fantastic opportunity for a customer-focused individual who enjoys delivering exceptional guest experiences while working towards sales and service targets.

  • Liaise with multiple departments to ensure a seamless guest experience.

  • Identify upselling opportunities and promote additional services and experiences.

  • Support the achievement of departmental KPIs and sales targets.

What We're Looking For: • Previous experience within hospitality, guest services, reservations or a customer-focused environment.
  • Proven experience working to sales targets and KPIs.

  • Strong sales skills with the ability to confidently upsell services and experiences.

  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

  • Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

  • Professional, proactive and customer-focused approach.

  • Full UK driving licence and access to transport due to location.

The company also offers an excellent benefits package including private healthcare, a private pension scheme, on-site parking and regular company events.
