Customer Experience Coordinator

Customer Experience Coordinator - Job Description
Home Sweet City is the highest rated short stay Property Management Company in Washington, D.C. We are a family owned company with 10+ years of experience managing high quality rental properties to ensure a 5 star experience for our guests.

We have an exciting opportunity for a dedicated and detail-oriented Customer Experience Coordinator to join our administration team managing 90+ (and growing), quality short term rental properties in the District, reporting directly to the CEO.

We are a close knit and highly successful team and the role requires someone who is a great team player, oozing positivity and great overall attitude to join our all star staff, with an aspiration to grow and develop personally and professionally.

The Customer Experience Coordinator is a pivotal member of the team, responsible for the guest and owner communications and day to day administration of the company. This is not a role for the faint hearted! It is fast paced, requires a very organized mindset and someone who likes the hustle. With multiple things going on at once, multi-tasking and keeping your cool is an essential part of every day. Unexpected challenges aise (maintenance, lock outs, etc.) and guests often need to be reassured and helped through their issue in detail. Not only are you someone who doesn't get flustered but your customer service and attitude have to be 5 star!

There are property owners, guests, cleaning crews and our field team to coordinate, and when issues arise, you will be the central point of contact, at the ready to think on your feet to problem solve and to make solutions happen.

They must be detail oriented, trained in customer service and hungry for a challenge in our fast-paced environment. As the team grows, the role will also include training new team members as they onboard to uphold our high standards and help grow our company culture.

We use multiple software platforms (from our computer as well as smartphone) for our operations and expect the candidate to adopt these systems and processes as part of their day to day.

We are in the hospitality business and so this is not a typical 9-5 / Monday through Friday role. Our busiest times are weekends and so working on the weekends is to be expected and to be on call during some evenings if necessary.
