What do you like about your job and the company?

I am the brand ambassador for TUI BLUE within very various and dynamic team structures. I am part of a broader CoE structure and working with an international Learning & Development team in very interesting and future oriented programs. I am responsible for adapting existing concepts or designing new actions for TUI BLUE that fit the needs of the brand and its employees. Nowing exactely what my target group and my hotel colleagues need is one of my biggest strenghts and I can now be the link between the TUI as a group and TUI BLUE as a brand. This can be challenging and working with international stakeholders can be pretty overwhelming, but in the end we all have the same goal to reach: To create unforgettable moments for our guests.

Greatest achievements

When I started at TUI BLUE, my role was completely new. There has never been a central position to coordinate the Learning & Development actions and give strategic guidance for the hotels. And yes, it's been a hell of a ride thorugh all the challenges I needed to face during my first year in role. Reorganizations, strategic target setting and new stakeholders made my job quite challenging from time to time. But in the end we have now built a strong fundament to work for the future of the brand and the strong growth!

Letting your passion shine through, and letting your personality come out in your work is, for me, really important. When you enjoy your work, it is great to let that show as it helps others see that passion, and shows you are motivated and engaged by what you do. I also think it is really important to be open and honest at work at well. Let your manager and colleagues know how you are feeling, and don't be afraid to ask questions - especially in Trading, asking questions is so important in helping you learn and understand the role.

I'm the sort of person that says "go for it" and "what's the worst that can happen?" I struggled for years not being able to get my foot in the (creative) door. I wound up managing a kitchen for a large pub chain - which is an absolutely fine career, but it simply wasn't for me. I started to apply to every role and opportunity that could offer me some experience to add to my CV - this included assisting photographers hang their work for upcoming exhibitions and photographing charity events for PR assets - all in my spare time. All of this rather random experience allowed me to start understanding which avenues I'd like to explore for my career. That career ended up beginning at TUI and i've never looked back.
