Hostess Jobs in Greenville, SC

A Hostess is an essential figure in the hospitality service industry, who serves as the first point of contact for customers.

A hostess is responsible for creating a welcoming environment and providing an outstanding first impression. They contribute significantly to the overall guest experience by maintaining a smooth flow of service during busy periods, handling customer complaints, and ensuring the cleanliness and readiness of tables and dining areas.
