I am Marshall Bax, I’m currently working as a CDR at The Pig at Bridge Place.

I chose the apprenticeship because I thoroughly enjoyed the Level 2 Team member apprenticeship with Jonathan in 2018; so much so that I chose to do my next qualification three years down the line in 2021/2022. I also took an assistant manager role at an independent restaurant in Ramsgate, where I felt I would benefit from having the support and guidance of Umbrella to become the best leader I can be; and strive for greatness.

At Iconic Luxury Hotels we have identified that apprenticeships have provided a certain degree of flexibility within our team in relation to recruitment and retention.

The nature of the apprenticeships has assisted in staffing and supported our succession planning model.
