  • Maintain exceptional cleanliness, organisation, and presentation within all work areas

  • Comply fully with hotel security procedures, fire regulations, and health and safety legislation

  • Adhere to all local licensing and responsible alcohol service regulations

  • Demonstrate environmental awareness and support sustainability initiatives

  • Collaborate seamlessly with all departments, maintaining strong and respectful working relationships
