Porter Position Available!

Are you a hospitality enthusiast with a passion for creating unforgettable guest experiences? We're looking for a Porter to join the Front Office team at Edgewater Lake Wānaka.

At Edgewater Lake Wānaka, we believe in providing our guests with more than just a stay – we offer a journey of relaxation, adventure, and a moment of peace and quiet. As a Porter, you'll be at the forefront of this mission. This position consists of helping guests with baggage and keeping the exterior of the hotel tidy, helping with the setup and pack down of events, lending a hand to different departments when required, and offering exceptional customer service to guests from the moment they arrive.

This is a full-time position. The ideal candidate will be physically fit (as this position requires some lifting), and previous Porter experience is preferred, but not required. You would be reliable, have strong attention to detail and a can-do attitude.

If you are already in Wānaka and this sounds like you, please apply by the Application for Employment, or email your cover letter and CV to our Head Porter Rob at [email protected]
