OUR PERSONALITIES

All the personality traits we look for in Cheval team employees apply regardless of where you fit into the organisation. From team members to senior managers, every individual has a role to play. Rather than strictly defined ‘competencies’, the emphasis is on behaviours, which we have set out in five key areas.

⭐ FOCUSED & EXPERTLY EXCELLENT

Cheval Collection aims to be guests’ first choice when booking luxury accommodation, offering a diverse, upscale and fully serviced range of apartments for any length of stay. The focused and expertly excellent component of this starts with a clear vision from senior managers that is well articulated by department heads and supervisors, and clearly communicated to team members interacting

🤗 HONEST & OPEN

Open and honest communication is crucial in any workplace, and Cheval is no different. A team member who has enough information to understand the bigger picture will always perform better than someone working in a silo. Communication of course works both ways, and we expect our senior managers to create an environment of trust that means feedback from all colleagues is listened to and acted upon.

💡 INNOVATIVE & CURIOUS

The hospitality industry is dynamic and competitive, and Cheval employees are encouraged to keep their ear to the ground and to share new ideas with their supervisors and department heads. You should have an open mind when it comes to new and different ways of working and be prepared to adapt where necessary.

💼 PROFESSIONAL & POSITIVELY PASSIONATE

The best way to lead is by example. Attitude is not something you can teach, but with a positive approach anyone can learn new skills and develop within their role. We also look for team members who are passionate about the industry and deliver superior service to all our guests.

😊 CARING & CONSIDERATE

To get the best out of our teams we look for managers and leaders who drive a culture of health and well being and are supportive to their colleagues. We expect team members to pitch and in and offer help when it is needed, and to give and receive feedback in a positive way.
