HOUSEKEEPING SUPERVISOR
REPORTS TO: HOUSEKEEPING MANAGER; position is non-exempt
WHO YOU ARE
If there was a test assessing someone's attention to detail, you would score at a genius level. You've embraced your perfectionist side, so it is quite natural for you to walk into a hotel and fluff every pillow you see, judge the level of cleanliness, or peek in closets to see how they organize their linen and cleaning supplies. You know hospital corners aren't just for hospitals, and the perfect crease on a bed sheet makes you smile. It doesn't matter where you are, you can't help yourself from refolding the bathroom towels. You understand that housekeeping appreciation is every day, and not just a week in September.
You thrive on the excitement that comes from turning a room during the 3pm check-in rush. You can't walk a hallway without picking up loose items, and your pockets are always full when you get home from work. Of course, you always have a microfiber rag at the ready, but you cannot go anywhere without your favorite multi-tool, because who has five minutes to wait for an engineer?
THE ROLE
It is critical the person in this position is tactical and strategic; if you only prefer to "see the forest" and not "plant the trees," then this is not a role for you. All leaders of Aparium are required to get down and dirty to unearth existing needs and personally ensure what needs to be fixed is repaired. We are a young company that is in hyper-growth, so having the ability to be a soldier is as critical as being a general.
The Housekeeping Supervisor reports directly to the Housekeeping Manager while providing some insight to the Director of Rooms, working together on how to deliver remarkable service throughout all aspects of the department. A large degree of self-motivation is needed to drive your department, while collaborating with the Engineering and Guest Services teams. You help lead the team through your collaborative approach as you know that the ability to act as a soldier is as critical as being a general.
The Housekeeping Supervisor is expected to lead by example while spending much of the day engaging with both associates and guests. We encourage our leaders to inspire and challenge each other to be their best. As a leader within Aparium Hotel Group, you will work with a phenomenal group of peers who insist that you are collaborative, humble, experienced, and open-minded - no egos are allowed.
The Housekeeping Supervisor will maintain and execute the standards for the guests' room experience during their visit to the hotel.
