Hospitality Ambassador Program
Released July 8, 2021
Due August 6, 2021
The UWIA is announcing the release of an RFP for the provision of hospitality ambassadors (“Ambassadors”), to ensure that the designated public spaces in the boundaries of the Uptown Whittier CBD (“District”) in Whittier (see attached map) are an inviting, safe place to live, work, visit, shop, dine and experience.
Ambassadors should be visible, mobile, and responsive. Ambassadors provide the highest level of hospitality and customer service possible–they are friendly, personable, approachable, knowledgeable, and also able to handle situations involving conflict. They greet and welcome visitors, as well as provide directions and other hospitality services as needed. Ambassadors are the eyes and ears of the District–reporting problems to be addressed to the appropriate authorities.
