About The Position

The University of Notre Dame Operations, Events, and Safety (UOES) division is currently hiring for full-time Overnight Supervisor within the Morris Inn in our campus Hospitality department. The UOES Division oversees the University's event management, hospitality, and customer service functions, while also supporting student life, academic initiatives, research activities, and annual milestone celebrations.
