• Being a kitchen hero - this means you'll be dishwashing, kitchen cleaning, food handling and cooking
• Brewing delicious coffee or mixing a signature cocktail;
• Being a secret concierge to the city, answering guests' questions about the best places to visit, eat, shop or party;ac
• Maintaining the living room and the canteen clean, and arranging food displays for the following shift;
• Helping our guests with any requests or demands regarding our facilities (you may even get some new tech skills).

Typical shifts are: morning, evening
Morning: 7:00AM-3:30PM
