As our Evening Concierge, you will be the first person people see as they walk into the building and the first voice they hear when they call in.
You'll be involved in so many things throughout the day that'll make the time go fast. This is not a position where you'll just sit behind a desk answering phones.
Oh, no. This shift is usually the busiest with the highest traffic volume, in-person and over the phone. You'll be the go-to person for everyone in the building.
You'll handle resident requests, log incoming packages and sometimes drop-off to residents' doors, plan resident social events, coordinate maintenance requests and help the office team.
