Role Summary

The CX Vessel Brand Ambassador is responsible for helping guests make the most of their visit to The Vessel. They are also responsible for helping guests plan for the rest of their visit to Hudson Yards – after their visit to Vessel. This role starts by setting the tone of the experience for every guest. They demonstrate the Related brand in everything they do, from how they greet, welcome, and help guests, to how they tell stories and/or solve problems.

The CX Vessel Brand Ambassador is positioned throughout the attraction, at various posts. The person assuming this role will help scan tickets, help guests check in, offer to take pictures, tell stories about the Vessel and the Hudson Yards neighborhood, help guests navigate the attraction, and get them interested in exploring the Vessel further. They will accomplish this by being well-versed with Vessel factoids, including information about its architecture and design, as well as its history and purpose. This role is also responsible for understanding how Vessel fits into the context of Hudson Yards – its relationship to The Shops and Restaurants, the commercial buildings surrounding it, as well as the other attractions onsite: Edge and City Climb.

In addition, the person assuming this role is expected to help curate experiences for guests beyond The Vessel. They will ask questions to understand the purpose of the visit, make recommendations for shopping or dining, should their questions uncover a need. They will also facilitate sales of tickets to Edge or City Climb when the opportunity arises.

In short, brand ambassadors are the key for every guest to make the absolute most of their time at Hudson Yards.
