The Discovery Inn is a highly-rated 20-room property located in beautiful Friday Harbor, Washington. Friday Harbor is a delightful little town in the San Juan Islands, not far from Seattle, but much less rainy. In the summer, Friday Harbor is a premiere tourist destination. In the winter it's very sleepy. That's where you come in.
We are looking for an experienced innkeeper couple to manage the Inn during our off-season (October through February) so our regular managers can take time to rest & recover from the craziness of summer. During the off-season we typically have between 3 & 12 of our 20 rooms occupied, as opposed to 100% solidly during the high season.
You will live on-site in the regular manager's apartment, and be responsible for all aspects of daily operations.
As the on-site managers, you will be responsible for:
* Hands-on running of the front desk, supporting our guests, providing concierge services, etc.
* Assisting with housekeeping as appropriate, including stripping and checking rooms, washing and folding laundry, etc.
* Caring for the property & providing 24/7 emergency support for guests (such as guests having locked themselves out of their rooms).
* Overseeing the housekeeping staff, facilities, guest relations, and reservation process
* Completing and overseeing low-season projects
We are looking for a high performing couple with relevant experience, tremendous professionalism and integrity and a passion for guest service, who have physical and mental stamina and can embody the role of "Innkeeper" with all that entails.
This is perfect for a couple who love customer service and work well together. During the low-season this is not a full-time position for two people, but does require at least one person always being on duty from 8am-6pm, with both of you working simulatnously as needed. Some full days off together are possible as well, but possibly not every week.
If you are interested, please send your resumes and a cover letter indicating why you think you might be a good fit for the position. We look forward to speaking with you!
