Summary

A bit about me, I would like to think that I am a fun and funny guy, I am very honest at all times, and will always show respect where it is due, I thoroughly enjoy going abroad with great people! I feel that there is nothing better than working hard each year to enjoy the different cultures that the world has to offer a week or two at a time. I have been in a relationship now for just under 3 years, and I cannot see my future elsewhere, looking at funding a deposit for a house at this current moment. And I am a very big fan of the football club Everton, growing up in an Everton household I have been a mascot and a season ticket holder and there is no other club for me.

Last but not least, I am a very hard worker that will never stop going, I always aim to achieve the greatest results and feel no matter what industry I move into next where I am stationed the best results in the country will come. If you hire me you will not be let down!

Within this role I have been responsible in ensuring up to 58 holiday let properties are ready for there guests each week.

Working within a property management company the role isn't just cleaning properties, we are responsible for managing the property this involves communicating with our guests, ensuring there stay has been great, and if there are any issues we are quick to fix. We also maintain properties so this starts with the general clean each time to reporting any maintenance issues to our Maintenance teams, We also empty, clean and ensure the jacuzzi's at our properties are ready for our guests to enjoy!

Another role to the job is ensuring all linen dirty/clean comes in and out of our launderette within the timeframe required, this can be extremely difficult as our 58 properties range from 1 bedroom properties to 30 bedroom properties so as you can imagine there can be a very large amount of linen coming into our facilities, and this can be up to twice a week.

Skills

I have many skills that I can bring forward to any establishment as I have had to learn everything in terms of managing a business through my time in the hospitality sector and through taken sole charge of a restaurant for a number of years


I believe my experience outside of the hospitality industry has only bettered my knowledge as I now have experience away from this industry, which has shown me a different perspective of work in general


Some key skills I would like to mention within this would be;

- Time management,

- Showing and demonstrating GREAT customer service,

- Leading and Coaching teams,

- Hitting GP and Sales targets,

- Motivating a team on meeting our upgrade targets,

- Implementing a fair working schedule each week for my employers,

- Creating a very positive atmosphere,

- Cash handling,

- A very fast and effective operation,


There are many skills that I can add however these are ones that I have chosen that shows my beliefs
