The Receptionist/Front Desk Agent/Guest Service Agent welcomes guests, manages check-in and check-out, handles reservations and payments, responds to requests, and provides accurate information about hotel services and local attractions. Candidates should have strong communication and customer-service skills, a professional presentation, and the ability to remain calm and organized in a busy luxury-hotel environment. Fluency in Arabic and English is expected; additional languages are advantageous. Previous front-office or hospitality experience is preferred, along with basic computer skills, flexibility to work shifts, weekends, and holidays, and a genuine commitment to personalized guest service.
The Dubai EDITION is a luxury lifestyle hotel located in downtown Dubai and part of the EDITION Hotels brand, created in partnership with Marriott International and renowned hotelier Ian Schrager. The property combines contemporary design, high-end accommodation, distinctive restaurants and bars, event spaces, and personalized service. EDITION hotels focus on delivering an elegant yet lively guest experience, blending local character with modern luxury. Employees work in an international hospitality environment where attention to detail, teamwork, discretion, and genuine engagement with guests are highly valued. As a Marriott-affiliated property, the hotel may provide structured training, career development opportunities, employee discounts, and access to international hospitality standards and systems.
The United Arab Emirates is a major hospitality and tourism destination, with strong job opportunities in hotels, restaurants, retail, aviation, events, and luxury services, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Although it is not an island, the country offers beaches, desert landscapes, cultural districts, shopping, and a cosmopolitan lifestyle. The culture is multicultural and generally welcoming, while Islamic customs, modest public behavior, and local laws should be respected. Dubai is modern, fast-paced, and internationally oriented, but living costs, particularly rent, can be high. Employers commonly sponsor work visas, residence permits, medical checks, and Emirates ID applications for overseas hires. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transport, health insurance, annual leave, flights, and service-charge arrangements before relocating. English is widely used; Arabic is a valuable advantage in guest-facing roles.
