This is a fast-paced, multitasking position. The ideal candidate enjoys working with people, communicates well, stays calm under pressure, and can confidently manage several responsibilities at the same time. At any given moment, you may be answering multiple phone lines, greeting a guest, checking in a client, assisting a student, scheduling an appointment, or processing a client's checkout.
