Year 12 Trinity Sixth Form – The Cumberland
“I had done work placement before but this was totally different. We met with the top managers in different departments and Des Moore the chief executive of the Cumberland. Sitting with him in a high level meeting was like a master-class in seeing leadership in action, how he dealt with people and worked with them – with everyone who came into the meeting given a voice about the operation of the business. It has certainly changed the way I think about the workplace, and now I am really excited. The Cumberland had a terrific atmosphere and I have never felt so welcomed anywhere!”
