Boot Room Host - Ski Valet Program - Inn at Sundance Mountain Resort
About The Position
The Boot Room Host serves as the first point of contact for guests entering the Boot Room in the morning, and the final farewell as they depart for the day. This role ensures that every guest interaction in the Boot Room is warm, personalized, and reflective of the Sundance Guiding Lights of Art, Nature, and Recreation. The Boot Room Host focuses on guest engagement and comfort while partnering closely with the Ski Valet, Bell, and Valet teams to provide a seamless start and end to each ski day. The Boot Room Host is responsible for creating an inviting and organized environment in the Boot Room. While the Ski Valet and Boot Room Attendant manage equipment handling and staging, the Host ensures lockers are assigned accurately, guests are guided with ease, and every arrival and departure is elevated with genuine hospitality.
