Role: Day Porter at The Imperial Hotel

Salary: £30,878 + Excellent Benefits

Hours: 40 Hours (5 Days out of 7 days weekly rota)

About The Role

We are looking for a friendly and reliable Day Porter to join our Front Office team at the Royal National Hotel, part of the Imperial London Family of Hotels.

As a Day Porter, you will play a key role in ensuring our guests receive a warm welcome and outstanding service throughout their stay. Acting as one of the first points of contact, you'll assist with luggage, provide directions and information, support the check-in process, respond to guest requests and work closely with colleagues across the hotel to deliver a memorable guest experience.

No two days are the same. From welcoming arrivals and assisting visitors to supporting hotel operations and helping maintain a safe, secure and presentable environment, you'll be at the heart of our guest journey.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience providing excellent customer service in a guest-facing environment
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Confidence handling guest enquiries and resolving issues professionally
  • Ability to work as part of a team and support multiple departments
  • Good spoken English for guest communication and safety purposes
  • Basic IT skills, including email and Microsoft Office
  • Flexible approach to working shifts, including weekends and public holidays
  • Ability to carry luggage and perform physical tasks throughout the shift

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
