Overview

The Front Office Receptionist position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across North West. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Brits and across the hospitality jobs space.

Communication runs both ways. Managers across the hospitality jobs team in North West make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the hospitality jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Brits much easier.

Internal documentation, process notes and shared playbooks make it easier for the Front Office Receptionist to step into the hospitality jobs workflow quickly. Institutional knowledge is well-organised, so people are not reinventing the wheel from one week to the next.

Notably, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Brits also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Meet the Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the hospitality jobs side of the business inside out. The Brits group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

Crucially, the team structure and working relationships for this role in Brits will be explained during the hiring process.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

Where You’ll Work

On top of that, the environment is service-led and people-centred. Expect varied hours, a high tempo during peaks, and a team culture built on hospitality and pride in the guest experience.

Importantly, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in North West.

In addition, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.

Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Brits site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.

A Typical Day

Your shift usually starts with a brief from the duty manager, a quick station check and a look at the day’s bookings or specials. As guests arrive, you slip into a steady rhythm — warm welcomes, accurate orders and seamless coordination with the kitchen and bar. Service peaks demand calm focus and tight teamwork, and quieter moments are spent resetting tables, polishing glassware or training a new starter. When the last guest leaves happy, you know you have delivered a memorable hospitality experience.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Brits.

Importantly, the Brits office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.

On top of that, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when North West operations throw up the unexpected.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Brits.
