Donna – Housekeeping
“I wanted to join this team to be part of the Grand journey from the beginning as it will be an amazing and unforgettable experience. I am looking forward to working with Grand standards instead of brand standards.”
Michael – Maintenance
“I have worked in the city for the past 10 years and there has been a lot of excitement about The Grand Hotel with its restoration/reopening. I’m proud to say that I am a part of this project and will be maintaining the building to a high standard preserving its wonderful heritage. The values of the hotel are something I say I can truly believe in, and will help forge great relationships with my colleagues.”
Riccardo – Restaurants & Bars
“I joined the Grand Hotel because I am excited to be part of such an important project and be involved with Restaurant & Bar operations of this size. I’m looking forward to “wowing” our Guests with our stunning venues, a great range of offers and the highest quality service provided by our team.”
Marta – Front Office
“When I saw the advert online I was enthusiastic as it was an opening and after I searched the hotel online, I was overwhelmed with excitement because of its history and how iconic the property was. I can’t wait to be a part of the opening of this calibre. I am looking forward to be in a team who shows passion and dedication on a daily basis. I am looking forward to delivering high standards and service with my team but also to keep it fun. I can’t wait for the opening of the hotel so we can show our lovely guests how proud we are being part of The Grand.”
Adam – Chef
“Born and bred in Birmingham I always wanted to see the Grand Hotel return to its former glory days. I was lucky to being working on the project 4 years ago, strangely enough in a restaurant in London of all places. So it’s exciting to actually be still involved all this time later and even better I’ll be the opening Chef for this incredible project”
Priya – Reservations
“I feel very blessed to have been chosen to work for the best hotel in Birmingham. The reputation and status the hotel has played a major part. I also haven’t experienced a new opening so this is a new challenge for me. Looking forward to getting ‘stuck in’ to get the hotel ready and open! Hoping to develop my skills set with the opportunity to grow.”
