Ready to get INKed?
Do you thrive on the buzz of a ringing phone and love connecting with guests from around the world? Can people hear your smile over the phone, and do you always spot opportunities to add that little extra to their stay? Are you excited by the idea of handling everything from individual and group reservations to organising events from start to finish? If so, this is your chance to start a brand-new chapter in your career – with us!
The Script
As our Reservations Representative, you’ll be the first voice and first impression of INK Hotel Amsterdam – MGallery. With your service-driven mindset and commercial flair, you know how to surprise and inspire every guest. You don’t just sell a room – you sell the full Amsterdam experience and everything our hotel has to offer.
You’ll join a close-knit commercial team of six and report directly to the Commercial Manager. Your role covers confirming, planning, and processing both individual and group reservations – from a single room to a full hotel buy-out, corporate meetings, birthday dinners, and VIP entertainment groups.
No two days are alike: one day you might be helping a large company plan a meeting down to the smallest detail, the next you’re arranging a romantic weekend for two. You’ll work closely with multiple hotel departments to make sure everything runs perfectly – and you’re not afraid to think creatively to deliver that extra touch. You’ll also have the opportunity to dip into revenue management and develop a sharp eye for pricing strategies.
Your key responsibilities:
- Managing reservations via phone and email for both individual guests and groups;
- Preparing proposals for group requests – from an intimate dinner for 10 to a multi-day hotel buy-out;
- Coordinating requirements and details with all relevant departments;
- Overseeing the full organisation of events, including upselling and aftersales;
- Handling aftersales, special requests, and complaints;
- Daily administrative tasks such as invoicing no-shows, checking commissions, and validating reservations.
