Do you already have a main job but want to earn extra in a tax-friendly way during your free time? As a Flexijob Night Receptionist, you become the reliable point of contact for our guests during the quietest hours. Perfect for retirees, part-time workers, or anyone with a primary employment contract looking to add a fulfilling side gig.

What does a Night Receptionist do?

You combine hospitality, a sense of responsibility, and an eye for detail. A snapshot of your tasks:

• Warmly welcoming guests and handling check-ins and check-outs during the night.
• Performing control rounds in and around the hotel to ensure safety and quiet.
• Monitoring who enters and exits the hotel.
• Operating the bar for late-night orders like drinks and small snacks.
• Carrying out minor cleaning tasks in the lobby or helping prepare for the breakfast team.
• Answering phone calls and emails, resolving questions or issues.
• Compiling daily statistical reports (e.g., occupancy rate, average rate, etc.).

In short: at night, you're the host, receptionist, security presence, and trusted figure all in one.

Who are we looking for?

• You meet the requirements for a flexi-job.
• You enjoy working independently but know when to align with colleagues.
• Night and weekend shifts are no problem for you.
• You’re comfortable working independently.
• You speak fluent Dutch and English.
• Experience in hospitality, reception, or security is a plus - especially night shift experience.
• You’re comfortable with computers or learn new systems quickly.

A diploma is less important than your reliability, sense of responsibility, and service-minded attitude.

What do we offer?

• A flexijob contract, with net pay.
• A flexible work schedule: we support a healthy work-life balance and adapt to each other’s needs. A non-traditional 9-to-5 schedule has its perks - pick up your kids from school, attend that Tuesday sports class, or enjoy free time while others are working.
• Growth opportunities through training with IHG, Aimbridge, and Horeca Forma.
• An open work atmosphere where you can be yourself, work with great colleagues, and enjoy your job.
