About the Company
Are we right for you
Like any hotel group we expect a lot but we’ll give a lot to get the right people. There are 4 things we look for:
-
We want people with bags of character. We don’t want you to hide your personality when you’re at work, we want you to feel comfortable, to be who you are.
-
We want people people. You’ve got to like being around others, smiling and chatting because you like people, not because someone told him to smile and chat.
-
We need extra milers. So if you think the job description is all you have to do, then we’re not for you.
-
You have to put your heart into it. When you tell a guess you’re happy to help, you have to mean it.
