As a Ground Floor Team Member at Premier Inn, you will welcome guests, help them check in, answer questions, serve breakfast or dinner, and do whatever it takes to ensure their stay goes smoothly. No two shifts are quite the same; one moment you could be helping a family with their luggage, the next assisting a business traveler with last-minute arrangements.

- Welcome guests and assist them in check-in and check-out processes
- Answer questions and provide information to guests about hotel amenities and services
- Serve breakfast or dinner to guests as needed

- Maintain a clean and tidy environment in the public areas of the hotel

You should have strong communication abilities, be able to work well under pressure, and possess basic organizational skills.
