Overview

As a Banquet Public Area Attendant, you will be a key part of our housekeeping/banquet team, ensuring that all public and function spaces — lobbies, hallways, restrooms, meeting rooms, and banquet areas — are spotless, inviting, and “guest-ready.” Your work helps create the first and lasting impression for every guest walking through our doors during events and daily resort life. Pay Rate $21.35 Part Time/ PM #towncountrysd

Responsibilities

• Clean and maintain all public areas: lobbies, hallways, restrooms, pre-function spaces, meeting / banquet / event rooms, corridors, stairwells, elevators, and back-of-house common areas.
• Sweep, mop, vacuum, shampoo carpets, scrub, wax, polish, and spot-clean floors, carpets, tile, marble, and other surfaces.
• Dust and polish furniture, railings, fixtures, metalwork, glass, windows, signage — including high-touch surfaces — to maintain a polished, guest-ready look.
• Clean and sanitize restrooms: sinks, toilets, mirrors, floors, dispensers; restock paper goods, soaps, and other supplies; ensure restrooms are maintained, especially during events.
• Empty trash receptacles and recycling bins regularly; safely transport waste to designated disposal areas; handle trash, bins, and cleaning supplies properly.
• Set up, arrange, or reposition public-area furniture or event-related furniture (chairs, tables, side-stations) as needed for event turnover or banquet/meeting setups.
• Respond promptly to spills, accidents, or urgent cleanup requests in public or event spaces.
• Monitor public areas throughout the shift, checking for cleanliness, hazards (wet floors, trash, debris, maintenance issues) and reporting any maintenance or safety concerns immediately to supervision.
• Restock housekeeping closets / supply rooms with necessary cleaning supplies, linens, paper products, and amenities as needed.
• Maintain cleaning equipment and carts: ensure vacuums, mops, buckets, carts, and other tools are clean, organized and stored properly.
• Follow hotel safety, sanitation, chemical-handling, and lost-and-found policies; use personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling cleaning chemicals.
• Provide friendly, professional guest service when encountering guests in public spaces — help with guest requests or direct them as needed.
• Perform special cleaning projects or deep-cleaning during low-occupancy times or pre-/post-events as assigned (carpet shampooing, deep floor cleaning, set-up/breakdown) especially for banquet / event spaces.
• Collaborate with the Housekeeping / Banquet teams to ensure that public and function spaces meet the resort’s cleanliness and presentation standards at all times.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
• Prior experience in housekeeping, janitorial, custodial, or public-area cleaning — hotel or hospitality experience preferred but not always required.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, busy environment — especially during banquet events or large guest flow.

Because this is a physically demanding role, candidates must be capable of:

• Standing and walking for 8+ hours per shift, often covering large public areas / event spaces.
• Frequently lifting, carrying, and disposing of trash bags, buckets, and cleaning equipment up to ~ 50 lbs. Some tasks may require lifting up to 75 lbs with help.
