Monday morning saw me at 'The Manor' before 6 O'clock ... to welcome Martin onto our team. We met Martin soon after we started the process of puchasing "The Old Manor" as it then was ... he had just moved to the Melksham area a month or two earlier and was settling into his first job here. But you know what it's like with first jobs - get what you can, and it may not turn out to be what you want to do longer term ...
Martin comes to us with prior experience of the hospitality business and of housekeeping, and by training he's a dietitian / healthy food expert. He'll be taking the early shift - providing a healthy continental breakfast for our guests, then making sure that the rooms are ready for the following night; on days that course lunches are in-house, he'll be helping with those as his last job of the day.
Welcome on board, Martin.
Update - November 2008 Two years later, this welcoming message has resurfaced as one of our random archive articles. Martin joined us in October 2006, with the intention of being with us for just a short while - but in the end he stayed over 18 months before he decided to move on to a new role as an administrator elsewhere. We wish him well
