Key Responsibilities 

Own It 

We take responsibility for outcomes, not excuses. 

• Lead daily housekeeping operations, including morning assignments, room prioritization, inspections, public-area coverage, turndown as applicable, and end-of-day handoffs.

• Monitor labor, productivity, linen, guest supplies, equipment, lost and found, and departmental expenses to protect quality, accuracy, and profitability.

Lead with Respect 

We treat people, ideas, and commitments with dignity. 

• Build thoughtful schedules and daily assignments that align staffing with occupancy, arrivals, departures, and business needs while remaining fair and predictable.
• Provide clear direction and timely feedback, correcting privately, recognizing publicly, and following through on commitments to the team. 
• Foster a professional and respectful workplace where room attendants, housepersons, public-area attendants, and supervisors feel supported, heard, and accountable. 

Win as One Team 

We succeed together. 

• Partner closely with Front Office to prioritize arrivals, communicate room status accurately, and resolve discrepancies or guest needs promptly. 
• Collaborate proactively with Engineering, Laundry, Food and Beverage, Sales, and Events on maintenance needs, VIPs, groups, special events, and anything affecting the guest experience. 
• Step in wherever needed, including inspecting rooms, delivering guest requests, supporting public-area upkeep, or helping the team complete assignments during peak periods. 

Learn and Elevate 

We grow ourselves and others every day. 

• Coach, mentor, and develop housekeeping team members to strengthen quality, productivity, consistency, and accountability. 
• Lead thorough training on cleaning procedures, room presentation, chemical and equipment use, safety, guest privacy, lost and found, and service standards. 
• Use inspections, guest feedback, productivity results, and operational observations to identify opportunities and continually improve the department. 

Leave Them Better 

We make every interaction meaningful. 

• Ensure guestrooms, corridors, public spaces, offices, and back-of-house areas are consistently clean, well maintained, and presented to Hotel Saint Vincent standards. 
• Approach guest requests and service recovery with urgency, discretion, and care, creating thoughtful solutions that restore confidence. 
• Protect the condition and character of the hotel by identifying damage, maintenance concerns, and safety issues promptly and ensuring appropriate follow-through.
