Here at Rutland Hall Hotel and Spa, professional development and growth is actively encouraged and nurtured. Teamwork is at the forefront of everything we do, and everyone’s voice is heard and respected. We are constantly striving to further our service standards and operation and are given all the support necessary to achieve this. The opportunities for the team here, and the potential for the property is immeasurable. Working here, you feel like you are part of something really special.

I arrived in England 18 years ago and began my first job at Rutland Hall Hotel. Starting as a cleaner, I was promoted to Housekeeping Supervisor after a year and have now proudly been made Housekeeping Manager. Our housekeeping team have recently been awarded ‘Team of the Year’. I couldn’t be prouder. This recognition helps us identify our strengths as a team.

From the moment I arrived for my interview, I fell in love with the hotel and its breath-taking views (which still amazes me after all these years). Despite the challenges of busy days, I love my job and the amazing team I work with.

I began my journey with Rutland Hall just over a year ago. I’ve never been front of house in hospitality, but this opportunity and the amazing feedback that I receive on a daily basis, has given me the confidence to continue with my ideas and help provide the ultimate guest experience.

No two days are the same and each day guests arrive as strangers and leave us as friends. At Rutland Hall, I am able to assist in the creation of the perfect guest experience.

During my last years at school, we studied ‘rural science’. I developed a love for being outside, watching the seasons change through the plants and the colours that we have on the estate.

I feel at home outside, the small of freshly cut grass or falling rain. The sun rise and set whilst working and all of the animals flying above or moving around you – all of these elements create my working day.

When I joined Rutland Hall in 2021, I felt so welcomed and got support from everyone here. My manager gave me time to learn and encouragement.

There are so many reasons why it’s a pleasure to work here. Everyone treats each other with respect and we feel like part of the family. There is so much appreciation from my senior leaders, which is very motivational.

Most of all, I enjoy everyday at work and this is the most important thing for everyone to stay connected and continue working at Rutland Hall. Everyday is different and interesting.

My passion for the hospitality and events industry began in 2017 after organising a charity ball for the Brain Tumour Charity.  Every time I come into work, I am presented with opportunities to interact with guests from all works of life, learn about their story and make their day that little bit better.

The highlight of my role is building and maintaining long term relationships with couples to closely plan and execute their event and create lifelong memories. The big day is one of the most significant moments of a couple’s relationship and being able to take care of them and relieve any stress, makes me feel incredibly happy.
