Receptionist at Scandic Klarälven

Scandic Klarälven is indeed located by the Klarälven river and near the E18. Here, our guests can satisfy their hunger in our restaurant Köksbaren or take a dip in our pool. The hotel is close to both nature and the city center of Karlstad.

We are not only proud of our location right by the beautiful river, but we are primarily proud of the service we always deliver to our guests. We want all our employees to thrive and be part of the development of our work, both at the hotel and in Karlstad as a city. We are confident that good collaboration leads us to achieve our best results.

We are now looking for a Receptionist for Scandic Klarälven.

No matter why the guest comes to us, few things are as appreciated as a friendly face welcoming them. You act as a host together with the rest of the hotel team and create a world-class guest experience.

With us, you will take significant responsibility for making the decisions necessary to satisfy the guest, and the teams develop and improve work methods and service as the world around us changes. We are convinced that it is when you get to develop and contribute all your skills and experience that we exceed the guest's expectations. On top of that, we have fun at work!

So bring your experiences, your commitment, and your way of thinking to us – and contribute to a culture where we truly care: about each other, our guests, and our planet. Welcome to Scandic!

What does the role entail?

As a receptionist, you are responsible for ensuring that our guests receive world-class service. You are the spider in the web, ensuring that the guest is always the focus. You go through the arrival list and pay attention to the details. You ensure that the guest's wishes are fulfilled. You always have a smile on your face and a creative solution up your sleeve. You solve most issues and are a star at turning an unhappy guest into a satisfied one. Your workplace is our lobby, as that is where you meet the most guests. Your responsibilities also include administrative work, safety work, and sales work.

The work in the reception involves checking in and out hotel guests, welcoming them, and providing the information they need about their stay. You manage bookings in the Opera Cloud system and handle administrative tasks related to guests and safety. All work is done with guest satisfaction and sales in focus.

The hotel is open 24/7, so it is important that you enjoy working shifts (mornings, afternoons, nights, and weekends).

Who are you?

To fit in this role, we believe that you have well-developed social skills and are capable of handling many different things happening simultaneously. It is very important that you can convey good hospitality to the hotel’s guests.

You also have experience and knowledge of working with a computer as a working tool.

Since the job largely consists of communicating with guests, good knowledge of Swedish and English is a prerequisite. If you speak another language, it is an advantage.

However, the most important are your personal qualities and attitude. To fit in this role, you need to be a responsive and unpretentious team player who takes significant responsibility for your tasks and the overall result.
