Porto Platanias Hotels & Resorts treats the restaurant entrance as a moment of transition.
The Host / Hostess does not simply greet guests — they set the tone, control the flow, and protect the dining experience.

We are looking for a Restaurant Host / Hostess who understands that calm presence and clear coordination matter more than performance or chatter.

The Role

This is a guest-facing coordination role.

Your responsibility is to:

  • welcome guests professionally
  • manage seating flow
  • support smooth service operations

You work in close coordination with Service Managers and Servers.

Responsibilities

  • Welcome and seat guests according to service flow and availability
  • Manage reservations, waitlists, and table rotation
  • Coordinate with service teams to ensure smooth seating timing
  • Maintain order and calm at the restaurant entrance
  • Provide clear, polite information to guests when needed
  • Support service flow during peak dining periods
  • Represent the restaurant with professionalism and discretion

What This Role Is NOT

  • Not suitable for loud, informal, or chaotic behavior
  • Not a purely decorative or passive position
  • Not a role without responsibility

If you underestimate the importance of flow and first impressions, this role is not a fit.

Requirements

Applications will be considered only from candidates who have:

  • Previous hospitality or guest-facing experience (preferred)
  • Clear communication skills in English (additional languages a plus)
  • Professional appearance and calm demeanor
  • Ability to manage guest flow under pressure
  • Respect for procedures, teamwork, and service hierarchy

What We Value Most

  • Order over improvisation
  • Calm over speed
  • Coordination over charm
  • Consistency over performance

How Success Is Measured

  • Smooth guest flow and seating
  • Calm restaurant entrance even at peak times
  • Positive first impressions from guests
  • Strong coordination with service teams
  • Trust from supervisors and colleagues

What We Offer

  • Professional and structured working environment
  • Clear service standards and expectations
  • Competitive compensation
  • Accommodation and meals (if applicable)
  • Opportunity to grow within F&B operations
