Events Operations Intern

We are looking for a so-positive-it's-infectious Events Ops Intern to join us. Reporting to our Restaurant Manager you will be responsible to provide a naturally friendly, helpful and responsive level of service to all our guests, ensuring they are treated as individuals and will want to return. 

Lotti’s is a buzzing neighbourhood restaurant in The Hoxton, Amsterdam, overlooking the Herengracht canal in the heart of Amsterdam. The menu features an internationally inspired brasserie style cuisine with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Our open kitchen serves grilled meats, seafood, pasta and small plates, and our bar and lounge offer cocktails, tonics and beers on draft. During the day, the café is a place to meet, relax or work, and from Thursday to Sunday the bar plays host to local DJ talent.

More about us…

Once the Mayor’s home, now our home, on Amsterdam’s Herengracht canal. The Hoxton, Amsterdam houses 111 rooms, The Apartment, our meetings & events concept, and our all-day restaurant & bar, Lotti’s.

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.

What’s in it for you…

• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
• Food on us during your shift.
• Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
• Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work.
• Paid time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• Hox Hero and Nifty Fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
• Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
• Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.

What you'll do...

• You're the first face our guests see, and you have your own way of treating them as individuals, making them feel welcome and their stay special - the Hox way.
• Deal with the coming and going of guests, making sure all bills are correct and contain no surprises.
• Work with all our teams to make sure we're always busy, and help our Front Office Manager with any overbooking levels.
• Answer phones, sort out requests, give recommendations to the best show to see and the latest pop-up restaurant to try in the area - you're the one-stop-shop for our guests to turn to.
• You’re our gatekeeper for our meeting room logistics. You know who’s who and what’s what.
• Maintain the meeting room area, ensuring all rooms are set up correctly and kept tidy at all time.
• And yes, there’s a little admin... Some expenses, some lists and a stationary order or two. But let’s face it, we know you love that!
• Tech? No issue. You know your HDMI from your USB and your Mac from a PC. Or, if you’re a technophobe (like some of us!) you’re willing to sink your teeth in and learn the ropes. It is the 21st century after all…

What we're looking for...

• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way.
