Core Values at The Heritage

1. OWN IT & DELIVER IT

This is a fast-moving industry where successful organisations are agile and move at pace. This requires a positive, can-do approach. We will be personally accountable for our actions, what we do and for on-time delivery. 

• Do what you said and agreed that you’d do
• Meet your deadlines and deliver on your promises
• Learn from your mistakes
• Take responsibility for making things happen and for when they don’t
• Be accountable for your role and your actions, and those of your team
• Prioritize workload in line with business goals 
• Keep pace and develop a sense of urgency

2. THINK ABOUT THE GUEST

We will ensure that our guests get a consistently great service every time and at every touchpoint – by thinking about the guest in everything that we do.

• We greet all our guests in a professional manner
• Make eye contact and smile
• Put the guest first, every time
• Act urgently on guest promises, delivering on time or earlier
