Here is what you will be doing each day:

As our Hostess, you’ll greet guests with a warm welcome, help them choose their seating, and present the menu. You’ll keep a daily logbook to ensure smooth communication between shifts and management. You’ll set up the dining room, handle reservations, and make arrangements for special events. Plus, you’ll take on other tasks as needed to keep things running smoothly.

Does this sound like you?

You are quick on your feet (literally and metaphorically) and have a polite and friendly attitude. You have a passion for service and thrive in a fast-paced team environment. You are looking for some flexibility in a job, so working a variety of different shifts, including days, evenings and weekends works for your personal life.

At Crescent Hotels & Resorts we strive to create a great place to work where associates at all levels of our organization are respected for their differences, just like the guests and owners we serve. That’s why we are dedicated to creating an environment that facilitates open and honest conversations about race, equity, diversity, and inclusion. By examining our own beliefs and behaviors, we can create change through training, recruiting, and promoting diverse talent to strengthen our culture.
