Head Concierge - Reception

The Head Concierge is in charge of a team of reception concierge (possibly including doormen) and all the responsibilities this involves - recruitment, staff rotas, supervision, budgets, cost control, etc.

Around 80% of your time is spent liaising with guests and helping them with their requests, and this requires absolute discretion. They are likely to turn to you for directions, restaurant reservations and tickets for opera, theatre, concert and sporting events, as well as for car hire, and airline and train tickets. You also will attend regular meetings with reception, reservations, banqueting, and housekeeping.
