Pay for this role is $23.45/HOUR
COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Known for its jaw-dropping lobby, spacious guestrooms, and a unique vibe, the award-winning hotel provides a relaxing and stylish escape.

POSITION SUMMARY
As a Front Desk Agent, you're often the first — and last — impression our guests take with them. You'll own the arrival and departure experience from start to finish, handle phone operations, and navigate guest requests with genuine care and a knack for making people feel like they belong. More than checking boxes, you'll be an advocate for the hotel, a creator of ridiculously personal moments, and the kind of person guests remember long after checkout.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
- Pre-assign rooms based on VIP status, repeat guest history, packages, and special requests — the details matter here.
- Welcome guests through check-in and checkout with confidence, warmth, and professionalism.
- Answer every call promptly and knowledgeably, leaving guests with complete, accurate information every time.
- Monitor room availability and review daily selling status using the yield management system.
- Open, balance, and secure your shift bank, accurately handling cash, check, and credit card transactions.
- Verify credit limit reports and ensure proper credit policies are followed throughout your shift.
- Complete all shift checklist items (AM, PM, or Overnight) before you clock out.
- Communicate seamlessly across departments — Reservations, Sales, Housekeeping, Engineering, and Valet — via phone and radio.
- Follow established key control procedures and submit lost & found articles with completed reports.
- Stay sharp on all fire and emergency procedures.
WHAT YOU BRING
- Experience in a customer-facing role — you're comfortable with people and it shows.
- A flexible schedule, including availability for evenings, weekends, and holidays.
- Composure under pressure — busy check-in rushes don't rattle you.
- A calm, solutions-first approach when guests need a little extra support.
- Comfort with hotel systems and a sharp eye for entering information accurately.
OUR CULTURE - What It’s Like to Work Here
Refreshingly Human.
That’s how we describe the Kimpton culture. Not a tagline — a way of being. It’s what you’ll feel the moment you walk through our doors, and it’s what keeps our teams coming back.
Kimpton founder Bill Kimpton believed one thing above all else: hire the right people and get out of the way. From day one, this brand was built on empowerment — giving people the freedom to be creative, take chances, learn from mistakes, and do what’s right. That vision sparked something special in 1981, and it still runs through everything we do across 80+ hotels worldwide.
If that sounds like the kind of place you’ve been looking for — read on.
Be 100% You
If you join us, you won’t be asked to leave yourself at the door. Your quirks, your tattoos, your accent, your personal style — all of it is not just welcome here, it’s celebrated. Being professional at Kimpton doesn’t mean being a clone. It means showing up as your full, authentic self and doing the work with your own flair.
Be the Ultimate Host
At Kimpton, you’ll be empowered to act. To be creative. To read the room, anticipate what a guest needs before they ask, and do what you truly believe is right — without waiting for permission. We hire people we trust, and then we trust the people we hire.
Spark Joy
Beyond great service lives something more lasting: emotional impact. Spark Joy is about the moments guests carry with them long after checkout — the ones that make Kimpton feel different from anywhere else. You’ll have the power to create those moments every single day.
INCLUSION & BELONGING
A culture this special only works when everyone feels they belong in it. We’re committed to building a workplace where every person feels seen, heard, and valued — and where differences aren’t just accepted, they’re what make us better. We proudly welcome candidates of all races, ethnicities, ages, religions, abilities, sexual orientations, gender identities, and backgrounds.

Front Desk Agent Jobs in Washington: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a front desk agent in Washington?
Most front desk agent positions in Washington require a high school diploma and some customer service experience rather than a state-issued license. Hotel and resort employers typically hire candidates directly and provide on-the-job training in property management systems. Medical front desk roles may require familiarity with HIPAA procedures and electronic health records. Completing a short certificate in hospitality or healthcare administration from a Washington community college can make candidates more competitive.
Which companies hire front desk agents in Washington?
Employers hiring front desk agents in Washington right now include Highgate, Sheraton, and Sonesta Select, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Washington's concentration of major hotel brands, large healthcare systems, and headquartered tech companies means front desk openings appear year-round across a variety of industry settings.
Which Washington cities have the most front desk agent jobs?
Seattle, Bellevue, and Kennewick have the most front desk agent openings in Washington. Seattle and Bellevue drive volume through a dense mix of hotels, medical centers, and corporate campuses, while Spokane's growing healthcare and hospitality sectors produce a steady share of openings on the eastern side of the state.
Are there remote front desk agent jobs in Washington?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of front desk agent openings tied to Washington are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how heavily the role depends on in-person guest and patient interaction. The small share of remote-compatible positions tends to involve virtual reception or administrative coordination rather than traditional front desk duties.
How can I get hired as a front desk agent in Washington with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying directly to hotel or medical office associate programs that hire and train candidates without prior experience. Large Washington hotel groups and health systems such as Providence and MultiCare run new-hire onboarding tracks designed for candidates moving from retail, food service, or call center roles. A hospitality certificate from Bellingham Technical College or South Seattle College, or a medical front office certificate from Renton Technical College, gives candidates a concrete edge when competing against other entry-level applicants.
Where can I find and apply to front desk agent jobs in Washington?
You can find and apply to front desk agent jobs in Washington on Migrate Mate, which lists current Washington openings updated regularly. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience level, preferred city, and industry setting, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
