Create a home for guests at Courtyard by Marriott Ghent!
Are you flexible, service-minded, and comfortable working both day and night shifts? Do you enjoy welcoming guests while also taking responsibility when the hotel is at its quietest?

Courtyard by Marriott Ghent is looking for a versatile Receptionist for a 60% part-time position, combining day and night shifts, and serving as a trusted point of contact for our guests at any hour.

As a Receptionist, you are one of the first and last faces our guests see. During the day, you create a warm and professional welcome. During the night, you ensure peace, safety and smooth operations while the hotel sleeps.

This varied role combines hospitality, responsibility, and independence.

Your responsibilities include:

• Front Office & Guest Service
  
  Welcoming guests and handling check-ins and check-outs (day and night).
  Providing information about the hotel and the city of Ghent.
  Answering phone calls and emails professionally.
  Resolving guest questions, requests, and concerns efficiently.
  Handling payments and administrative tasks.
• Night Responsibilities
  
  Ensuring safety and quiet during night hours.
  Performing control rounds in and around the hotel.
  Monitoring access to the hotel.
  Preparing daily reports (occupancy, revenue figures, statistics).
  Supporting light operational tasks where needed.
• General Support
  
  Collaborating with housekeeping, breakfast, and other departments.
  Helping ensure the lobby and reception area remain tidy and welcoming.

In short: you are host, problem-solver and reliable presence, both by day and by night.

You are someone who:

• You remain calm, friendly and solution-oriented.
• You enjoy working independently but know when to align with colleagues.
• Night and weekend shifts are no problem for you.
• You're looking for a part-time job (60%). You speak fluent Dutch and English.
• Experience in hospitality, reception or s
• curity is a plus, especially night shift experience.
• You’re comfortable with computers or learn new systems quickly.

A diploma is less important than your reliability, sense of responsibility and service-minded attitude.

• A sustainable commitment via a permanent contract.
• An attractive salary package, including:
  DKV hospitalization insurance
  Meal vouchers and eco vouchers
  Worldwide employee discounts within Marriott International
• A flexible work arrangement: we support a healthy work-life balance and adapt to one another. A non-traditional 9-to-5 schedule also has its perks – pick up your kids from school, go to that Tuesday sports class, or enjoy your free time while others are working.
• A unique opportunity to start from the very beginning! Help launch a high-profile hotel opening where you can make an impact on the Front Office team from day one.
• Room for growth, via the Marriott training platform and on-the-job coaching.
• An open and supportive company culture – we believe in teamwork, trust and fun at work.
