All About Being a Hospitality Ambassador

Block by Block is looking for the friendliest people who enjoy working with the public. If you love interacting with people but are looking for more variety in your assignments, this might be the job for you!

Hospitality Ambassadors are often like the cheerleaders for the local places we serve because they:

Continually greet and find ways to interact with nearly everyone they come into contact with to offer a greeting and friendly conversation.

Help visitors by making suggestions of activities, attractions, and restaurants.

In many cases, if someone knows where they are going, such as a resident or employee, we still want to offer friendly greetings and interactions to everyone.

Professionally represent not only us but our customers, and they realize we're highly visible and operate in one of our cities' most important fishbowls.

Take action when something out of the ordinary happens, which may require police, fire, EMS, or social service outreach professionals.

As a Hospitality Ambassador, no two days are ever the same, but a typical day will likely include the following responsibilities:

Be Visible and Be Really Friendly: Our job is to be a visible presence and create continual friendly interactions with the people in the public space we serve, and to be a reassuring, helpful presence.

Ongoing Reporting: Be comfortable using our simple smartphone app to report normal activities and incidents.

We might be a great match if:

You love going home every day with the sense of accomplishment that you made your city or someone else's day better.

You have prior experience in customer service, hotel, retail, private security, and other forms of public service.

You're looking to start a new career working with the public!

You like being active. (Who doesn't like paid exercise!)

You are looking for a fantastic, second career opportunity (a.k.a. We love retirees!)

Maybe not so much if...

You are looking for only a Monday through Friday job. We are busy all day (especially on the weekends)

You only like working indoors

You want to be sitting most of your day.

You don't like people.

You're not at least 18.
