Step off King and Flinders Street and into something familiar yet entirely unexpected. The Waterside Hotel spans three levels of dining, rooftop views and unforgettable events — and we’re looking for Hosts to be the face of it all.
As Host, you’ll set the tone from the moment guests walk in. You’ll guide them through the building, manage bookings and waitlists, and make sure every arrival feels effortless. More than that, you’ll jump in where needed — supporting the team, solving problems on the fly and making every guest feel welcome.
What you’ll do
Welcome and seat guests with warmth and professionalism
Manage reservations, enquiries and waitlists
Guide guests across multiple levels — dining, rooftop and events
Work closely with the floor and bar team to keep service flowing
Jump in to support service and create memorable guest moments
What you’ll bring
Experience as a host or in front-of-house within busy venues
Sharp communication skills and a guest-first approach
Organisation and confidence managing bookings and flow
Proactive problem-solving skills and a calm, confident approach in every situation
Flexibility across nights, weekends and events
Valid RSA & DoFoodSafely certificates
What you’ll get
Award wages + penalty rates
Opportunities for growth and career progression
A supportive culture built on trust, teamwork and recognition
The chance to shape the guest experience in one of Melbourne’s newest destinations
