Receptionist Scandic Växjö, Temporary 75% Type of Employment Part-time
Job position Hotel receptionist
Work model On location
Application due date 21 September 2025
Are you the one? A few turns in from the E4 is Scandic Växjö - opposite the city's largest shopping center and a few minutes walk from Arena Staden. Here, our guests can swim in the indoor pool, eat a good dinner in the Kitchen Bar or have a drink in our lobby bar.
We place great emphasis on a personal, pleasant and welcoming treatment - towards our guests of course, but also towards each other. Our development opportunities at the hotel extend beyond departmental boundaries. We are a big team with quick steps that are keen to inspire each other so that everyone enjoys their work at our exciting hotel.
We are now looking for a Receptionist for Scandic Växjö.
Regardless of why the guest comes to us, there are few things that are as appreciated as a friendly face that greets you. You act as a host together with the rest of the team at the hotel and create a world-class guest experience.
With us, you get to take great responsibility for making the decisions required to make the guest happy and the teams develop and improve working methods and service as the world changes. We are convinced that it is when you can develop and contribute with all your skills and experience that we exceed the guest's expectations. And we have fun at work!
So bring your experience, your commitment and your way of thinking to us - and contribute to a culture where we really care: about each other, our guests and our planet. Welcome to Scandic!
What does the role involve?
As a receptionist, you are responsible for ensuring that our guests receive world-class service. You are the spider in the web that ensures that the guest is always in focus. You're the one who goes through the arrival list and spends time on the details. Making sure that the guest's wishes are fulfilled. You always have a smile on your face and a creative solution in your back pocket. You solve most problems and are a star at turning a dissatisfied guest into a satisfied guest. Your workplace is our lobby. Because that's where you meet the most guests. Your responsibilities also include administrative work, security work and sales work.
Working at reception means checking guests in and out, greeting them and giving them the information they need about their stay. You manage bookings in the Opera Cloud system and handle administrative tasks around guests and security. All work is done with guest satisfaction and sales in focus.
The hotel is open 24 hours a day and it is therefore important that you enjoy working in shifts (mornings, afternoons, weekends and night).
Who are you?
To be suitable for this role, we believe you will have well-developed interpersonal skills and be able to cope with many different things happening at the same time. It is very important that you can convey good hospitality to the hotel guests.
You also have experience and knowledge of working with a computer as a tool.
Since the work largely consists of communicating with guests, good knowledge of Swedish and English is a prerequisite. If you speak another language, it is an advantage.
Most importantly, however, are your personal qualities and attitude. To fit the role, you need to be a responsive and unpretentious team player who takes great responsibility for your tasks and the overall result.
