T
he Dorchester, 45 Park Lane and Coworth Park are three extraordinary hotels based in the UK as part of Dorchester Collection. The Dorchester and 45 Park Lane are found in Mayfair, just opposite Hyde Park, and if you go a little way outside London, you will find Coworth Park, our glamorous countryside getaway in Ascot. All of our hotels in Dorchester Collection are unique, offering a home away from home for our guests, but what truly makes them special is our people. Our people live our values of passion, personality, respect, working together and creativity every day to give the guest the ultimate experience that they will never forget. But why come work for us? Through our
‘we care’ culture, we strive to look after our people through our world-class training and development schemes, such as our supervisory apprenticeship scheme, which we launched
Case study
Tom Booton takes charge at The Grill at The Dorchester This year at The Dorchester we are relaunching our fine-dining restaurant The Grill in October with our new head chef Tom Booton (pictured). Essex-born Tom is the youngest head chef to oversee The Grill in all of our 88 years as a hotel. Tom started his career in the kitchen at the young age of 15 and has worked at some incredible restaurants, including Alyn Williams at the Westbury, where he joins us from. Tom comes to The Grill with a host of fresh new ideas for the menu, but also for his team, and he values the importance of getting young chefs into the business.

this year. We also launched our departmental coaches training this year, teaching our team members vital training skills to use every day in their roles. For us at The Dorchester, 45 Park Lane and
Coworth Park, it is not all about work! Our social calendar is packed throughout the year, including our annual winter ball, quarterly pub quizzes and our summer party, to name a few. Focusing on wellbeing is also important to us, with our own in-house team of mental health first-aiders to assist our people, as well as weekly boot camp sessions, a football team and a softball team. This year we also held ‘diversity week’, where
we showcased all the different cultures we have in our hotels. We held a recipe competition, where our team members submitted their favourite recipes – including a traditional Irish stew, Spanish omelette and a Cornish pasty – and the winners served them up in our staff
canteen. We also held a shares fair, where each department creatively displayed something different and special about what they do – our housekeeping team modelled housekeeping uniforms through the ages, starting in the 1920s. There are lots of different opportunities
available within our hotels, including apprenticeships, internships and our graduate programme. We are also very excited to be launching our one-year placement programme for students in 2020.
