Job Description

NOW HIRING: Assistant Executive Housekeeper

Are you ready to take the next step in your hospitality career? Summerland Waterfront Resort is looking for a driven, detail-focused, and people-first leader to join our team as Assistant Executive Housekeeper.

This is not a cleaning job. It is a leadership opportunity for someone who wants to grow in hotel operations, build a career in the South Okanagan, and be part of a supportive, high-performing team. You will coordinate a busy housekeeping department and help ensure our rooms and common areas go beyond clean and reach a standard of pristine.

Our guests return again and again because of the care and excellence our team provides. If you love organizing, mentoring, and making a difference, this could be the role for you.

We’re a top-rated Okanagan resort where exceptional people thrive. Our team culture is built on:

– Respect, kindness, and inclusion
– Clear communication and collaboration
– Pride in every detail
– Celebrating wins—big and small

Whether you are already in the South Okanagan or looking to relocate, this is your chance to build something meaningful while living somewhere beautiful.

Ambitious? Organized? Ready to elevate guest experiences? We’re looking for you!

> WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

– Supporting the Executive Housekeeper in leading daily operations
– Coordinating schedules, task sheets, and team assignments
– Leading onboarding and ongoing training for housekeeping team members
– Conducting room inspections and ensuring standards are exceeded
– Supporting the team hands-on during busy times
– Communicating with other departments to keep operations running smoothly
– Leading seasonal projects and special deep cleans
– Upholding and reinforcing our “WOW” guest service standards

> WHO YOU ARE

– A confident, compassionate leader who leads by example
– Highly organized, detail-driven, and calm under pressure
– Committed to hospitality excellence and team success
– Someone who values both people and process
– A great communicator who’s always willing to roll up your sleeves
