A day in the life of a Desk Manager
06:45 You arrive, in uniform, with a cup of coffee or tea in the back office. Your colleague from the night shift takes care of the handover.
07:00 You start your checklist, and, in the meantime, you keep an eye on your colleagues at the desk and support where necessary.
08:00 You have checked today's arrivals and communicated the details to the other departments.
10:00 In the absence of your manager, you attend the morning meeting. After the meeting you go back to the front office and in between the phone calls, you also process the incoming emails and work your way through the 'morning rush'.
12:00 Enjoy your lunch with colleagues from other departments.
13:00 You check whether there are still guests pending to check out and continue with your checklist until all is done.
14:00 You make sure the handover is updated for the evening shift.
14:45 The evening shift has arrived, and you make sure they know everything they need to know to begin their shift.
15:00 Time to go home!
