Job Description

At this business hotel in Bellville, you'll turn bookings into happy stays. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll be based at a business hotel in Bellville. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

The work, day to day

  • Manage OTA bookings coming in from online travel channels.
  • Run the night audit, close the day and print the flash report.
  • Balance your cash float and card slips before handover.
  • Take card pre-authorisations and settle folios at checkout.
  • Book shuttles, dinner reservations and game drives for guests.

Must-haves

  • You can work rotating shifts, including nights
  • A hospitality or tourism diploma, or 1 year at a hotel front desk
  • Confident on a computer and quick to learn a property system
  • Clear spoken and written English
  • Honest with cash and card payments

Helpful, not essential

  • Revenue or yield management exposure
  • Amadeus or Galileo training for travel roles
  • A foreign language such as German, French or Portuguese

On offer

  • Night-shift allowance
  • Discounted stays across the group
  • Service charge share at some properties

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): a recently certified ID copy (within 3 months), two contactable references plus your hospitality or tourism diploma and transcript.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 6 working days.

  • If you speak a foreign language, state your level honestly; many interviews switch languages mid-chat.
