    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • My role is to support the strategic growth of Lifestyle and Collection brands within EMEA. While also working as key stakeholders in setting the brand standards and programs for the hotels both operationally and strategically. The role varies day-to-day due to the project dependent nature which is based on business needs. For example, in a week I could have several projects ranging from competitor research to changing brand standards.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I have been able to develop preexisting skills and learn new ones during my time at Hilton. I have developed my skills on Excel and PowerPoint, while also becoming comfortable with new platforms and software on a variety of projects. Furthermore, over the year I have expanded my commercial knowledge in regards to the hospitality industry and developed soft skills such as prioritisation and time management.
