Concierge (Various Positions) - InterContinental Brisbane

As the world's largest family of luxury hotels, we all take great pride in being genuine ambassadors of the InterContinental brand.

Shaped by decades of international know-how and local insights, our passion for luxury travel spans cultures and customs. Inspiring us to create warm and sophisticated experiences for those seeking a richer perspective on the world.

If you’d like to embrace a world of opportunities, we’d like to welcome you to the world’s most international luxury hotel brand.

Nestled in the heart of Brisbane’s CBD, InterContinental Hotel Brisbane will open to guests this winter, offering 321 spacious hotel rooms and suites, all day dining restaurant and lobby bar, outdoor pool, fitness centre and Club Lounge, all in a prime location above Queen Street Mall, perfect for exploring the city’s top attractions. With over 1800 square metres of meeting and events spaces, InterContinental Brisbane offers versatile function rooms and a Grand Ballroom catering for up to 1000 guests, making it a great choice for business and leisure events alike.

The moment a guest steps into one of our hotels, they walk into a genuinely memorable experience. As part of our Concierge team, you’ll deliver this from the outset, creating a lasting first impression that makes our guests feel welcome in any location.

We’re looking to build our Concierge team, across the following roles:

• Chief Concierge, Full-time
• Concierge, Full-time
• Bellman, Full-time
• Doorperson, Full-time and Part-time
  
  

Every day looks a little different, but mostly you can expect to:

• Provide information pertaining to all hotel services, local places of interests, restaurants, doctors, sightseeing tours and any other information likely to be of the interest to guests
• Ensure a “welcoming sense of arrival” and demonstrate a “sincere farewell” while also ensuring the lobby, driveway, and Concierge area’s are maintained to a high standard
• Trained on systems, security, and service and quality standards in accordance with the Brand Standards
  
  

What We Need From You

Are you refined, personable, knowledgeable, proactive and meticulous?

The successful candidate will need to demonstrate these behaviours every day, whilst having a working experience in an environment focused on guest service within a luxury brand.

Candidates must also have:

• Ongoing availability to work flexibly as rostered, between 6am and 10pm including nights, weekends and public holidays
• Full working rights in Australia without restrictions
• At least two years in a management capacity (for Chief Concierge)
• Strong communication skills and confidence in speaking to guests from all over the world, with a warm, welcoming energy
• Fluent in the English language; extra language skills would be great, but not essential
• Impeccable grooming standards and good personal hygiene
• Physical fitness as you’ll be on your feet most of the day. Sometimes you’ll need to lift, push and pull objects, such as luggage and parcels up to 23 kg – we have the equipment to support you and keep you safe.
• Ability to work in a team and in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple tasks and conflicting deadlines, as well as assist in supporting the team with other duties, as required
