Hotelier Maldives: Could you tell us about yourself and how you began a career in the hospitality industry?

Enusha Beejah: I was born in Mauritius into a family of accountants. My whole family expected me to follow in their footsteps, but I never saw myself sitting at an office in the city. I was drawn towards nature, to explore and to look for something which I had a real passion for. It was when I travelled to Switzerland to study Hospitality that I discovered what I was really passionate about. After the completion of my studies, I went back home to Mauritius and joined the Constance Hotels and Resorts company. At the Constance group, I started off as a management trainee in Constance Belle Mare Plage in Mauritius, then I moved to housekeeping coordinator which involved moving to the Constance training academy. For the past decade, I have been with the company and developed my skills and talents while also building up and developing my team along the way.
