Team Member skills and experience:

Our team member role requires flexibility to cover different shifts and tasks. Its an advantage but not essential that our team members have worked in a face-to-face role with customers previously. Experience** in hospitality or customer service is desirable.

Our team members cover a wide range of customer-facing duties throughout the hostel, delivering an excellent service to all guests and visitors so they have a great experience at YHA.

Your day-to-day duties may include:

  • cleaning and preparing bedrooms between the departure and arrival of guests.

  • keeping the hostel reception and social areas clean and tidy

  • complying with YHA requirements in the usage and storage of cleaning products.
  • Reporting faults or damage to a member of the hostel management team.
  • Sorting and distribution of used and unused linen

Its important to note that the role can be physically demanding; youll be standing for extended periods of time, required to make bunk beds and clean guest accommodation to a high standard.
