The Reservations Agent is responsible for converting enquiries into confirmed stays and for shaping each guest's visit well before they arrive. At a lodge of 20 suites, every booking is personal: you will be the voice guests come to know, curating dining, spa and experience itineraries around the occasion that brings them to the Grand Saddles Lodge.

Working within a small team, you will manage enquiries by phone, email and online channels, maintain accurate rate and inventory records in the property management system, and work closely with the front office, restaurant and spa teams so that every detail agreed at booking is delivered on arrival. You will also support relationships with travel advisors, wholesale partners and returning guests, and contribute to the lodge's revenue performance through thoughtful upselling and careful management of availability.
