About The Position
At the Reikart House, every day is a performance - and every employee plays a role in telling our story. A beautifully prepared guest room doesn't happen by accident. It takes a team of people who care about the details, take pride in their work, and understand that cleanliness and presentation are essential to the guest experience.

We're looking for someone who has a keen eye for detail, knows what great housekeeping looks like, and enjoys helping others succeed. Our goal is simple: To make a difference in people's lives through service. Every interaction with a guest is an opportunity to make a difference. Every room inspection is an opportunity to ensure our guests walk into a space that feels clean, comfortable, and cared for. As a Housekeeping Inspector, you'll be an important connection between our Housekeeping Team and the overall guest experience. Great housekeeping isn't just about clean rooms.
