Key Responsibilities & Duties
As a Hospitality (general) professional, your role will be multifaceted. You will be the face of the venue, directly impacting guest satisfaction and operational efficiency.

- Event Support: Setting up and breaking down conference rooms, banquet halls, and event spaces; assisting with delegate registration; serving refreshments during meetings and large-scale functions.
- Guest Relations & Concierge: Handling guest enquiries at reception or concierge desks, providing information about local amenities in Birmingham, managing luggage, and striving to resolve any issues promptly to ensure a positive stay.
- General Portering & Housekeeping Support: Assisting with maintaining public areas, moving furniture and equipment, supporting the Housekeeping Staff team during peak times, and ensuring all service areas are clean, stocked, and presentable.
- Team Collaboration & Compliance: Working cohesively with permanent and temporary staff, adhering to all health, safety, and food hygiene regulations, and following the specific procedures of each client venue.
Candidate Requirements & Skills
We are looking for motivated individuals with a positive attitude and a strong work ethic. While full training for specific tasks is often provided, certain core attributes are essential for success.
- Proven Hospitality Experience: Previous experience in a customer-facing role within hotels, restaurants, catering, or events is highly desirable. A passion for service is non-negotiable.
- Excellent Communication & Interpersonal Skills: The ability to interact confidently, politely, and effectively with guests from all backgrounds and to work as part of a diverse team.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Have questions about working in hospitality through Quick Placement? We've compiled answers to the most common queries below. For more details, visit our dedicated FAQs page.
While previous experience in a customer-facing role within a hotel, restaurant, bar, or event setting is highly beneficial, it is not always mandatory for all positions. We value a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and willingness to learn above all. For entry-level roles such as kitchen porter or housekeeping assistant, we provide on-the-job training. For more front-facing roles like waiting staff or reception, some prior experience is usually preferred. During your registration call, our consultant will assess your background and match you with suitable opportunities.
Speed is one of our key strengths. For candidates with all necessary documentation ready (proof of right to work, ID, etc.), we can often complete the registration process within 24-48 hours. Many of our hospitality roles, especially those labelled"immediate start," require staff urgently. Once registered, you could be placed on a shift within the same week. The process is as efficient as our construction staffing solutions, designed to get people to work fast.
Hospitality offers immense flexibility. Shifts can include early mornings (for breakfast service), daytime, evenings, late nights, and weekends. We have roles suitable for part-time workers (e.g., 20 hours per week), full-time (35+ hours), and those seeking ad-hoc or event-based work. You tell us your availability, and we will match you with clients whose needs align. This flexibility is similar to what we offer in other sectors, such as for retail assistants or packing operatives.
In most cases, the client venue will provide any necessary uniform (e.g., branded shirt, apron) and safety equipment. You will typically be required to provide your own smart black trousers/skirt and comfortable, closed-toe black shoes. Specific requirements will always be clearly communicated in your shift briefing before you start. For roles in kitchen environments, slip-resistant shoes may be mandatory, and some clients can provide these.
You will be paid directly by Quick Placement on a weekly basis. Our payroll week typically runs from Monday to Sunday. You must submit your timesheet by a specified deadline (usually Monday morning). Once approved by the client, payment is processed and will reach your bank account by Friday of the same week. All payments include statutory holiday pay accrual. It's a reliable and transparent system used across all our roles, from Healthcare Support Workers to Administrators.
