•    Excellent time management skills with the ability to change activity frequently and cope with interruptions.


•    Tech-savvy with experience using various digital systems and applications and comfortable using mobile apps, tablets, and various software platforms.


•    This role involves frequent travel between worksites, so reliable personal transportation is essential.


•    Dependable and prepared. Showing up on time and ready to go is key to creating great stays for our guests and peace of mind for our homeowners.


•    Must be dependable, self-motivated, and able to work independently while contributing positively to a collaborative team environment.


•    Comfortable talking to people—online or in person—and being able to share information in a way that’s clear, thoughtful, and represents the company in a positive way always.


Physical Requirements & Workplace Environment


•    Work may take place indoors or outdoors, in a variety of settings including private homes, resorts, offices, and laundry facilities — often in varying weather conditions.
