A live-in guest house role in Cape Town could suit an experienced hospitality administrator who enjoys looking after guests, managing bookings and helping a small tourism business grow. LND Guest House is looking for a Guest House Administrator for a temp-to-perm position, with accommodation provided.
About the company and the work
LND Guest House, also linked to LND Travel and Tours, operates in hospitality and tourism. The administrator is central to daily operations: guests arrive, bookings change, tours and transfers need coordination, and the business also needs marketing and social media attention. It is an in-person, live-in role, so the successful candidate will live at the guest house and be closely involved in its day-to-day running.
Role details and duties
Duties include managing daily guest house administration, handling reservations, check-ins, check-outs and guest enquiries, and coordinating travel bookings, airport transfers, shuttle services and tours. The role also covers invoices, quotations, payments and records, developing marketing strategies, managing social media and promotional content, and maintaining relationships with guests, travel agencies and corporate clients. The administrator also assists management with general business operations.
Requirements
- Minimum 3 years of experience in hotel or guest house administration.
- Proven experience in a travel agency or tourism environment.
- A recognised degree or diploma in administration, business management, hospitality management or a related field.
- Experience in marketing, advertising and business promotion.
- Good knowledge of digital marketing and social media, including Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp.
- Excellent communication, customer service and organisational skills.
- Computer literacy, including Microsoft Office, email and online booking systems.
- Ability to work independently, multitask and work under pressure.
