The General Manager of Vila Porto Mare, a 443-room four-star property in Madeira, André describes the Portuguese island as, “like Eden – it’s eternal spring here.” Madeira is also where André was born, but he hasn’t always lived there. Before taking up graduate study at Les Roches Marbella, André had earned his bachelor degree in Lisbon, spent time in Hong Kong as an exchange student and worked at Lufthansa’s Beijing office.

Passionate about hospitality, André came to Les Roches to deepen his knowledge of hotel operations and business. For André, studying at Les Roches provided more than a degree –

it was also where he developed a close group of lifelong friends and met his wife.

After graduating, André completed six months of operational training at Hotel Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro before returning to his childhood home of Madeira to join Porto Bay Hotels & Resorts. He became General Manager within a couple of years, first at Hotel Porto Santa Maria and then at Vila Porto Mare. As General Manager, André relishes the excitement and variety of his role: “You wake up every morning with new ideas of things to do, and you never know how tomorrow’s going to be.”

ANDRÉ JARDIM FERNANDES CALDEIRA CLASS OF 2011 GENERAL MANAGER VILA PORTO MARE, PORTO BAY HOTELS & RESORTS, MADEIRA

“Coming to Les Roches meant breaking out from my comfort zone, and facing all the fear and uncertainty that entails. Studying two postgraduate programs, one in International Hospitality Management and another in Marketing Management for Luxury Tourism, required full-time commitment and dedication. It has been a very demanding path on which I have met wonderful people from all over the world, and I have acquired the knowledge and values that have enabled me to start a new professional life in a sector that I am passionate about.

Without a doubt, having Les Roches on my CV helps me to stand out from the crowd during the recruitment process. However, it’s the values – such as responsibility, professionalism and rigor – instilled by Les Roches which ultimately make me a successful candidate. In the world of luxury five-star establishments, those standards of excellence make all the difference.”
