How long have you been at SkyCity?
I moved to New Zealand in April 2017, then started my career at SkyCity in late 2017 as a Premier host and joined the Marketing team in March 2019.
What excites you about working at SkyCity?
Prior coming to SkyCity, it felt intimidating at first as I come from a different industry where I’d spent almost half my life and worked for a single company - I had formed strong relationships with colleagues and considered them my second family. So, coming into this new environment, I didn’t know what to expect, but surprisingly the moment I joined, I immediately felt a sense of belonging - everybody is helpful, friendly, happy and provide a positive working environment. My people leaders provided me the support that I needed to move forward and develop paving the way for me to reach this point of my career.
What do you enjoy the most about your new role?
Firstly, transitioning from shoe designing and merchandising to technical configuration of marketing promotions has presented me with a new set of challenges and I’ve enjoyed tapping into my creativity. Additionally, my new role allows me to collaborate with different subject matter experts like Campaign Owners and IT loyalty team which has enabled me to build positive relationships across the business. Finally, everyday gives me the opportunity to bring out the best in my team so that they are able to make a positive contribution towards our business goals as well as their own personal ones!
How do you manage your wellbeing and work/life balance?
I try to have a positive work life balance by allocating time to travel – although it has been hard in the last year, I love seeing the world, learning different cultures and its people, and tasting new cuisines. I also have a strong interest in food channels and where I can learn different dishes and the art behind the dish so in my downtime, I like to watch shows on Netflix and reading books.
