MEET THE TEAM
Meet Alexandra, our brilliant Cluster Purchasing Manager. With 30 years in hospitality, Alexandra has experienced more hotel drama than an entire season of "Hotel Babylon." Her journey began in the charming town of Bad Pyrmont, where she trained in a small family hotel. There, she mastered everything from making perfect beds to dodging guest tantrums—skills that would serve her well in the bustling world of big-name hotels.
Alexandra’s career is like a whirlwind tour of Germany’s finest spots: she’s conquered Hamburg’s hustle, Bayern’s charm, Hessen’s heart, and Berlin’s buzz. Along the way, she’s checked into some of the top hotels: Radisson Blu, Steigenberger, Premier Inn, Intercontinental, and Ramada. If there’s a high-profile hotel in Germany, Alexandra’s probably worked there. Her experience isn’t confined to one department. Alexandra’s played the role of Receptionist, Reservation Manager, Concierge, Guest Relations Expert, and even Hotel Manager. She’s basically done everything in a hotel except be the guest. Alexandra can juggle check-ins, manage reservations, solve guest problems, and run a hotel—all before her first cup of Tea …sorry coffee.
Speaking of tea, Alexandra has a deep love for all things UK. She’s an Anglophile through and through, probably able to recite the Queen’s Christmas speech by heart. And let’s not forget her small Rover Mini Cooper, a car as packed with personality as its owner. She zips around town in her Mini, handling purchasing deals with the precision and speed of a Formula 1 driver.
Alexandra’s purchasing prowess is legendary. Need a thousand monogrammed towels by tomorrow? No problem. Want artisanal chocolates for a VIP event? Consider it done. She’s like a procurement ninja, slicing through red tape and vendor negotiations with ease.
So here’s to Alexandra, welcome to the team.
