The U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Tourism is launching a recruitment drive for local hospitality greeters and entertainers who will welcome visitors at the territory’s airports and cruise ports. The initiative seeks energetic, personable Virgin Islanders who can share the islands’ culture, provide helpful information, and ensure every guest receives a warm introduction to the territory.
Department of Tourism Commissioner Nominee Jennifer Matarangas-King highlighted the importance of these roles in delivering an exceptional visitor experience. “Our people are the heart of the U.S. Virgin Islands, and this is an opportunity to showcase that warmth, pride, and hospitality to every guest who steps onto our shores,” she said. “From the very first smile to the moment they begin exploring, these ambassadors will help shape memories that last a lifetime.”
Applicants must be at least 18 years old, have knowledge of the territory, and a passion for hospitality. A flexible schedule, valid business license, and proof of full vaccination are required. Bilingual proficiency in English and Spanish is preferred.
