My ability to coordinate efforts of all departments within a hotel, in order to ensure total customer satisfaction, has become the major secret of my success throughout my career. I possess strong leadership qualities to supervise the staff in a manner befitting the hotel’s outlook and image, Moreover, I have extensive knowledge of providing above par guest services by anticipating their needs and striving to fulfill them immediately. I am also proficient in managing the concerns of angry guests by ensuring that they never leave the hotel premises dissatisfied
I am Ashfaq Sheikh, currently based in UAE, and would like to apply for the above position for your kind consideration.
I have been a hotelier throughout my career spanning over 26 years since 1995. Worked my way up to the position of General Manager of 3 / 4 Star hotels in Sharjah, U.A.E. As you may understand from my CV, my last two positions were in the senior managerial level of two different properties. My last employment with Citymax Hotel at Sharjah was in the capacity of General Manager, reporting directly to the CEO of Landmark Group of Hotels. I have also been working closely with the individual group heads at the corporate office in liaison with the CEO and COO of the group for policy planning and implementation of the group policies within the individual hotels. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic which brought devastation to the entire hotel industry throughout the world, I had to end my association with the Landmark Group in June 2020. After taking a small break in India to spend time with my family there, I am now back in U.A.E. looking for a break to start my career again.
As you may note from my detailed CV, I have an impeccable and proven record as a senior hotelier with many achievements to my credit. I have always accepted challenges and tough targets thrown at me with hard work, dedication and with a positive attitude, which has always yielded good results. Just to quote an example, in my last employment, I was given a challenge to run the Sharjah City Max Hotel which was making heavy losses and was on the verge of closure by the then CEO Mr. Russel Sharp. Within the span of a few months, leading from the front and guiding a highly motivated team collectively we turned the hotel into a profitable venture which earned a lot of praise and goodwill from the owners.
Sir, If I am given an opportunity, I can assure you that I shall do my utmost to deliver the expected results both financially as well as qualitatively to elevate the standards of the property.
