11.03 – 03.04

Chalet Assistant

Although the role of chalet assistant is relatively simple, consisting of duties such as cleaning and cooking, the

key aspect of my role was interacting with guests. To ensure that their stay was thoroughly enjoyable I would cater

for their personal needs, for example by providing separate meals for children and adults. I would also discuss

skiing and boarding with them, identifying their individual capabilities and requirements, to best advise them on

which pistes to visit. If guests had specific technical questions, I would help troubleshoot the problem to solve the

issue.

03.03 – 11.03

During this initial period of employment with English Heritage, I learned about the organisation and

developed my professional capabilities since previous employment had involved less customer

interaction. As well as general duties such as manning the shop or reception, I researched the history

of Pendennis Castle to better equip me to give guided tours and answer any visitor questions. I had

extensive interaction with a wide variety of customers both in my everyday role and also through involvement i

n hospitality functions such as weddings and children’s parties. Management personnel recognised my

calibre as a seasonal custodian and were consequently keen to re-employ me upon my return to the UK.
