President's Welcome
On behalf of the executive committee and all the members of Les Clefs d’Or Australia I welcome you to our website.
It is my honour and privilege to be at the helm of such a professional team of men and women in such a prestigious organization, one that is committed to the continual improvement of service standards.
The Society Of The Golden Keys plays an important role in supporting Concierge professional around the world by providing structured network in which we can operate. For the society as a group to provide a better service to the guests in our care, we rely heavily on the assistance of our colleagues around the country, for advice, technical assistance or access to resources.
The Australian chapter of Les Clefs d’Or is one of the smallest countries in the UICH family with only 38 members, unlike our colleagues in France, Italy, China and the USA who have several hundred members each. In Australia we may not have the amount of members as our overseas colleagues but that has not prevented us from making our mark on the world stage, with former Australian President Tony Facciolo OAM distinguishing himself when he made history as the first non European International President of the Society. Tony and his dear friend and founding Secretary Alfred Jasinski pioneered the Concierge profession in Australia and their wonderful contribution to the Society of the Golden Keys is documented in our Australian Chapter page.
This like every other year will see again our various state chapters hosting their Concierge Gala Ball. These events are always well received by the industry and the members of the Society are looking forward to catching up with our many friends and supporters during the night. Proceeds from each ball will again be donated to local charities as listed in our donation section. Why not take a look at some of last years images from last years festivities in our Photo Gallery.
In closing on behalf of my fellow colleagues I would like to thank you for visiting our website and hope that we can be of service to you one day soon.
Yours in Friendship,
Elvis Soiza
President Les Clefs d’Or Australia
