Night Auditor

ASH Hotels designs, develops, owns and operates a very special collection of properties. In our world, a hotel is much more than a destination to meet, dine, or sleep. Rather, it is a dynamic site of imagery and emotions, interactions and sensations manifesting within the walls of a beautifully restored local legend - a living movie set. An ASH hotel is a connection to the past and a beacon for the future, layered in nuanced storytelling that invites exploration time and again.

Opening Fall 2026, our jewel box of a hotel stands on the iconic Venice Beach boardwalk, a lively stretch of California culture where a seemingly endless beach meets the dreams and schemes of this great city. Venice, CA was born from a grand vision, the ancient and hauntingly beautiful most serene republic reborn for pleasure on the wild pacific coast, where the spirit of spectacle, entertainment, and countercultural pursuits are as palpable as the salty air.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Night Audito r to be the calm, capable presence at our front desk overnight.

The ideal Night Auditor is independent, detail oriented and unbothered by working while most people are asleep. They move comfortably between precise, methodical audit work and warm guest interactions - checking in a late flight arrival with the same genuine hospitality as a midday agent, then quietly running reports and reconciling accounts once the lobby goes quiet. Trustworthy and alert, they take real ownership of the property overnight.
