Kasa is building a global accommodations brand. We offer trustworthy, well located, and well priced, home-like accommodations that feature tech-enabled, seamless check-in, and personalized virtual service. We want our guests to not just stay with us but to truly settle into our Kasas while traveling.
Kasa’s product is built on the flexibility and scalability of its systems. Unlike a typical hotel, we are able to profitably operate buildings with as few as 2-5 Kasas as well as those with several hundred. And instead of a front desk, we have a 24/7 virtual guest experience team that provides guests with attentive and personalized service. We focus on marrying operations and technology, which allows us to centralize processes, automate tasks and reduce the need for on-site staffing at our locations. This lowers the price for our guests, and improves the value for our landlord partners. We have Kasas all over the country and are expanding into new markets every day.
At Kasa, we aren’t only investing in product, technology and properties; we’re investing in people! We believe that our teams help the company—as well as each other—grow. We hope each career path at Kasa is unique and exciting. Many employees have been able to advance and move into other roles within Kasa in order to continue pursuing their passions!
The Role
We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join our Guest Experience team. As a Guest Experience Specialist, you will build a personal connection with our guests by communicating directly with them every day and having a high level of responsibility. Even though this is a remote role, we want to build a Hospitality Team that is communicative and inclusive. In short, you’ll confront the following challenge: how can I create a fantastic, memorable experience for all Kasa guests.
In this role, you will report to a Guest Experience manager and work closely with other GX Specialists, the Director of Guest Experience, and teammates from other departments. It takes a special person to help travelers feel at home in a new area.
About the Team
This role is in our Guest Experience department. We have team members located all over the US and world. Our team is full of people with diverse backgrounds and we work hard to maintain a positive environment within the department. Everyone joined Kasa because they are passionate about travel and hospitality and they stay because of our great culture.
Day in the life of a Kasa Guest Experience Specialist
Like any Guest Experience Specialist, there is no ‘typical day’. You will work 8-hour ‘virtual office’ shifts. During your virtual office shifts, you will actively work on tasks to help the business function. You’ll spend time with guests via phone, text, email, and web-based platforms and take initiative to quickly answer and handle guest issues as they arise. Most of the time, you’ll be working virtually, but with occasional visits to the apartments in your city to support operations or provide a special touch to guests.
As a GX Specialist, you will guide guests through the reservation process and become an expert on all things Kasa to help answer unit-specific questions. You will also manage and schedule housekeeping and help to grow the business as we add new units.
