Hotel Night Auditor/Receptionist
Position: Night Auditor/Porter \& Breakfast Attendant
Location: The Warwick Hotel by Colombo Edition
Job Type: Full\-Time
Shift Pattern: Extended Night Shift (11:00 PM or 9:00 PM to 9:00 AM) *Note: This is a temporary schedule until our full 3\-shift rotation is implemented.*
About Us
Welcome to The Warwick Hotel by Colombo Edition. As an 80\-bedroom boutique\-style property, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional, personalized service to our guests. We operate a lean, highly efficient team where every staff member plays a vital role in our success. We are currently looking for a highly motivated, organized, and adaptable multitasker to become the heart of our overnight and early morning operations.
The Role
This is not your standard desk job. As our Night Auditor \& Breakfast Attendant, you will be the ultimate all\-rounder. While the world sleeps, you will be in charge of the hotel—balancing the day's financials, managing online channels, and ensuring our public areas are spotless. As the sun comes up, you will seamlessly transition into the morning rush: setting up the breakfast buffet, waiting on tables, and jumping back to the front desk to handle morning check\-outs with a smile.
If you love working autonomously, keeping busy, and wearing multiple hats in a single shift, this role is built for you.

- Prepare and set out the morning breakfast buffet, including cooking hot items and baking pastries.
- Act as the breakfast waiter: greeting guests, checking room numbers against the breakfast manifest, charging unpaid rooms, and clearing tables quickly.
- Maintain a constant line of sight on the front desk to simultaneously process morning guest check\-outs, take keys, and wish guests a safe journey.
- Experienced: Previous experience in hospitality, front desk operations, or night audit is highly preferred. (Experience with Lighthouse PMS/Cubilis is a massive advantage).
- A True Multitasker: You can confidently flip an egg, clear a table, and run to the desk to print a guest folio without missing a beat.
- Tech\-Savvy: Comfortable navigating property management systems, processing virtual credit cards, and managing online extranets.
- Detail\-Oriented: You have a sharp eye for numbers and will not rest until the daily financials balance perfectly.
- Reliable \& Independent: You thrive working solo during the quiet hours and are highly dependable.
- Competitive salary: *£28,000 \- £32,000*
