WHO WE ARE
Hotels done differently. It’s not just a slogan or catchphrase, it is who we are in everything we do. We believe in the power of People, Place and Character; ensuring our properties are a place where individuals are valued and celebrated as a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities in which we operate; elevating our associates’ pride in who they are, where they live and who we serve
A little bit rebel, a little bit refined, Clayton is smart and sophisticated, charming, and confident, and always down for shaking up the status quo. Consistently moving the needle on what a membership club can be, Clayton demonstrates a unique spirit, constantly challenging what it means to gather and engage while connecting guests to each other and what inspires them. Clayton believes the more interested you are, the more interesting you are!
Clayton Members Club is managed by Aparium Hotel Group which was founded in 2011 by Chicago hospitality executive and entrepreneur Mario Tricoci and Michael Kitchen. The duo saw a clear need for a company that could bring c-suite service and accommodations to underserved, yet distinct and important cities while maintaining and celebrating the unadulterated character of each. Driven by the belief that all hospitality experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings, Aparium was born with an intense focus on unearthing the amazing moments unique to every city.
Since its founding, Aparium has grown into a new kind of hotel brand, one that ventures off the beaten path, both geographically and philosophically. It is a sophisticated hotel brand known for its singular ability to combine the business acumen of large hospitality companies with the charm of boutique hotels. At Clayton, the ideals of Opportunity, Equity, and Inclusion (OEI) for our members are at the forefront of the community and the environment we will create.
WHO YOU ARE
Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is an art + science to the how and what a hospitality operations professional is responsible for. You are what your friends might affectionately call a “coffee nerd”. You inhale deeply every time you pass a coffee shop taking in the rich aroma. Nothing pleases you quite as much as getting the perfect crema on your espresso pulls. Your passion for coffee is only rivaled by your passion for fresh food and delivering excellent service. You love your place in the community- you get the neighborhood up and running. Without you businesses just wouldn’t be buzzing and that is something that you take pride in.
THE ROLE
The Barista reports to the F&B Operations Manager and F&B managers/supervisors and works in a team environment with other servers, server assistants, bartenders, barbacks, dishwashers, cooks, and chefs. It is critical the person in this position possess a strong background in the art of coffee and tea making.
