February 2017

 

After graduating the Bachelor of Science (BSc) at HTMi, Hotel and Tourism Management Institute Switzerland, I decided to further develop my career in hospitality field at Swisstouches Hotels & Resorts in China. It was a very unique opportunity to continue my professional and personal growth from HTMi to Swisstouches, within the same high quality Swiss hospitality standards but in a totally different country and in a company with a strong growth strategy. 

I started in July 2017 as a Brand Manager at the Swisstouches Head Office in Xi’an, China and from the very first day I felt in love with the Swisstouches brand and its unique service culture.  After an accommodation time with the brand and with the Swisstouches properties, I was assigned to take responsibility of the Swisstouches Training Academy.  Continuous training and development of all the talented people who work at Swisstouches Hotels & Resorts is one of our highest priorities, so each hotel has a Training Academy providing famous Swiss hospitality education and training. 

My role includes taking care that the training at Swisstouches follows the same structure and methods used at HTMi Switzerland and that it is available to all our members. To ensure this, I work very closely with the training teams in our opened properties in Xian, Nanjing and Guangzhou, as well as in the many pre-opening hotels around the world to make sure that all our guests experience the highest 5-star quality guest service.

With a current pipeline of over 8000 rooms globally, and growing so quickly, Swisstouches Hotels & Resorts represents a strong platform for growth, which I am very proud to be part of.”
