But we're more than a resort. As a family-owned company, our Promise is simple: Lead with Love. This means caring deeply for our guests, associates and communities-treating people like family, giving back generously, and creating spaces where everyone feels valued.
Through our partnership with charity water, we're also committed to bringing clean water to one million people in Africa.

Starting Rate: $17.00 an Hour
Key Responsibilities
  • Inspect the setup of meeting and banquet functions, checking them against the banquet event orders (BEO's).
  • Supervise and assist with the setup of assigned catered functions, ensuring that the hotel's standards are met, and advance preparation for service is adequate to allow efficient service to the guest once the function begins.
  • Assist Banquet Manager with the creation of the banquet work schedules and completion of banquet wage progress reports.
  • Supervise and assist with the breakdown after the completion of functions to ensure that all equipment and supplies are stored properly.

What We're Looking For
  • 1 year of supervisory or management experience in food service or the hospitality industry in a convention center or large hotel (over 500 room property) is preferred.
  • Prior experience as a server and set-up houseperson is required.
  • Having a broad understanding of the tourism industry and the day-to-day operations of a hotel/resort are helpful.

A Sampling of Our Benefits
Our team enjoys a comprehensive benefits package, including:
  • Career growth opportunities with promotion from within
  • 401(k) matching, paid time off, and holiday compensation
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage for full-time associates
  • Employee appreciation events, discounts, and perks at all resorts
  • Education assistance programs to help advance your career
