William, who is a third year Hospitality Management student on placement at The Ritz Hotel, was recently nominated for the AICR Receptionist of Year competition by his colleagues.

The AICR Receptionist of the Year Competition grows stronger year on year with more Hotels showing support for their Front Office staff by recognizing their talents and putting them forward into this coveted competition which has been running since 1996.

The final was back in December and William was lucky enough to receive third place.

 The event also served as the AICR UK Christmas drinks and it was at the Crowne Plaza St James where AICR handed over £2000 to their nominated charity, Hospitality Action.

Congratulations to William!
