Authenticity There is no secret formula for five-star service. A great product (which we have) helps, of course. But, ultimately, it is the people that breathe life into a hotel. We are looking for individuals who


have what it takes to be the best and are proud to work for one of the world’s finest hotels. We are passionate about what we do and who we are and we have a lot of fun doing it! Reward and


Case study Sebastian Koewius Sebastian joined Corinthia London in 2014 as a graduate management trainee in food and


beverage (F&B). He spent 12 months in F&B before experiencing the rooms division (front office and housekeeping). He then became head waiter in our Northall Restaurant in June 2015 and, 12 months later, was promoted to assistant manager within in-room dining.


Why were you attracted to the Corinthia Hotel London? One of the biggest advantages the Corinthia had over other management programmes was it offered a lot of flexibility. I stated that there were certain departments

that I wished to experience during the management programme and, as a smaller hotel chain without a rigid corporate structure, they were very accommodating and very keen for me to follow a path that suited me. I was interested in experiencing the bigger picture, not purely F&B outlets, and it worked out very well.


What has been the biggest learning point for you? Learning how different people communicate and behave has been the most important and challenging aspect of my career so far. What you are asking for is usually not the problem – it’s more a question of how you ask, especially to people from different cultures. This skill sits under the ‘emotional intelligence’ umbrella, that has become such a buzzword in recent years.

As I have progressed through my career, the projects, requests and collaborations have become bigger, but the skill in communicating effectively stays the same.


Why would you recommend others to join Corinthia Hotel London? I believe that as a hotel we are approaching an exciting period in our history. After six and a half years the product itself is still looking fresh and new and is great to work with, plus the outlets are starting to mature, with teams and managers that have got to know their departments intricately. With each passing year, the


standards and quality of service improves and this brings a sense of pride and accomplishment to team members that is wonderful to be part of.
