Reservations Trainee
As a Reservations Trainee, you are the first point of contact for guests who reach out via phone, email, or messaging. You are responsible for the entire process from the moment a guest makes a reservation or submits a request to book, all the way until the guest arrives at the hotel.
You handle various administrative tasks such as preparing quotations, processing cancellations or modifications, and managing complaints. Attention to detail is important—you carefully check payments and ensure smooth, clear communication with guests.
Within the Reservations department, you will be given a lot of responsibility and will be expected to switch quickly between tasks. Because you work for several hotels, you’ll experience plenty of variety and challenge. Your main workplace is the Support Office at Leonardo Hotel Amsterdam Rembrandtpark, where the team works in a 50/50 hybrid model (office / remote).

You have a commercial mindset and are guest‑oriented.
You are outspoken and not afraid to take initiative.
You have a good command of both Dutch and English, spoken and written.
