People Intern

The Hoxton Poblenou is looking for a People Intern!

We’ve opened this year our first Hoxton in El Poblenou in the city of Barcelona and we’re looking for an outgoing People Intern to help run the day-to-day People operations for 5-6 months.

Reporting to our People Manager, you will be responsible for supporting the daily people operations.

This is our 11th Hoxton and the hotel boasts 240 bedrooms of different sizes, a large restaurant and deli shop, a rooftop restaurant and pool, a huge basement events space and The Apartment (our unique meetings & events concept).

What you’ll do…

• Support the team with recruitment needs, CV pre-screening and telephone screening.
• Advertise vacancies on The Hoxton website and local recruitment job boards.
• Organise coffee chats with all new starters.
• Fun-time Friday, get togethers? That’s your domain. You arrange the regular events that everyone looks forward to.
• Get involved in the Team activities.
• And yes, there’s some admin... Some training tracking, some scanning, some business card order. But let’s face it, we know you love that!
• Tech? No issue. You know your systems and can set up accounts for the team.

What we’re looking for…

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor’s Degree or Master’s Degree in Hospitality Management or Human Resources Management.
• Must be fluent in Spanish and English.
• It's all about attitude for us, someone who enjoys being helpful to others; that person who makes you feel confident they can answer any question and who you'd want to stop and chat to.
• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You are scarily organised, have the ability to multi-task and spin a million plates in the air at one time, prioritise and re-prioritise as things come in.
• You know how to crack the whip – but make people feel good at the same time.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door.
• You make people feel good - your team and colleagues alike.
• If we get stuck in a lift with you – we’ll get along nicely and have a laugh along the way!
