THE ROLE

Chetola Resort is seeking a personable, detail-oriented, and service-driven Reservations Agent to join our Front Office & Guest Services team. This role serves as a key point of contact for guests before, during, and sometimes after their stay—supporting both reservations and in-house guest needs by phone and email.

The Reservations Agent plays a critical role in shaping the guest experience from the very first interaction, while also supporting guests during their stay by answering calls, assisting with requests, and coordinating service across departments. This role requires strong computer skills and comfort working across multiple systems, including the property management system (PMS) and telephone/PBX systems, to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and a seamless guest experience.

We are hiring for full-time positions (30+ hours per week). This position is scheduled to work Friday through Sunday and is ideal for someone who enjoys being part of the resort’s busiest and most guest-facing days. Weekend availability is required, and holiday availability is preferred.
