The role

As a hotel receptionist, you welcome guests, handle check-ins and check-outs, and manage reservations in the property management system. You take payments, answer calls and emails, and pass requests to housekeeping or maintenance. You are often the first and last person a guest remembers.

Skills employers ask for

  • Opera PMS
  • Check-in and check-out
  • Reservation management
  • Cash handling and billing
  • English and French
  • Guest complaint handling

Who is hiring

Hotels, resorts, guest houses, serviced apartments and business hotels in capital cities all need front desk staff, and international chains value bilingual profiles. The role is on-site and organised in rotating shifts, including nights and weekends.

Background and career path

A hospitality or tourism diploma helps, but many receptionists start with a baccalaureate and strong languages. With experience you can become front office supervisor, front office manager or guest relations manager.
