    Head of Brand & Events at Burgh Island Hotel

    A huge congratulations to our Marketing Executive and Receptionist Claudia Testa who has just passed her Level 2 Reception Management apprenticeship. We wanted to know a little bit more about Claudia's journey so we asked her a few questions. What was your first day at Burgh Island like? I remember coming down the hill for the first time and seeing the Island glistening with the sunrise. Then, Vlad came to collect me on the sea tractor at 06:00 and showed me my accommodation and for lunch I had a fantastic crab sandwich. What made you choose this apprenticeship programme? I have always being very ambitious and I like to challenge myself, this apprenticeship gave me the chance to do exactly that. What have you learned from your apprenticeship? For it I learnt to be more organised, to assess and better understand the challenges and capacities of people working with me every day, to make connection and networking and overall to be a better leader. What are some of the benefits of doing an apprenticeship? Apprenticeships will help you move forward in the industry. Experience paired with knowledge can take people really far. How are you applying your skills and knowledge that you’ve gained to your working day? The Belbin team roles is something that stuck on me. Being able of better understanding me and my colleagues through this role definition has certainly shaken the way I deal with everyday workload. If you could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? My camera, my coloured pencils, the cross-stitch pattern I’m currently working on, my scrapbook and a kindle probably… so I can have as many books as I want! What can you reveal about yourself that few people know…? I am actually a decent cook, and I love to have dinner parties for my friends. Sadly I don’t get to cook that often. What would you say to someone thinking about doing an apprenticeship? To just go for it. If you're looking for a career in hospitality that allows room for growth and learning, look no further than Burgh Island.
