1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

My day starts with making sure areas are clean and tidy and ready to work in. All checks are made to ensure safety! Smile on my face ready to greet customers or to help with any enquiries or problems guest may have. Then see what the day has to offer!
