Kachane Bunnag
Executive housekeeper
Dusit Thani Dubai
Dubai, UAE
A member of the Dusit Thani Dubai pre-opening team, Kachane Bunnag is described as being “the type of executive housekeeper who will roll up his sleeves and get onto the floor to get things done the way they should be done”.
Nominator Nattira Anakasiri, PR & MarCom manager at Dusit Thani Dubai, says: “Kachane is not merely liked or respected by his team, but loved and revered. This is not only because he leads a fantastic housekeeping team but because he is also an involved member of the team. He shares in everything his team experiences. If the team is running behind schedule cleaning guestrooms, Kachane is up there on the floors cleaning alongside them until the job is done”.
Praised for his honest, straight-forward and trustworthy nature, Bunnag is hands-on and accessible to his team members, says Anaskari.
“Whenever assistance is needed, Kachane never refuses and is always available to lend a hand, whether it is within his own department or assisting another department. For example, on days when the hotel’s ballroom is the venue of a large function, Kachane will be at the hotel entrance not in the capacity of executive housekeeper, but as a valet parking attendant, and he will be giving his best efforts there just as much as when he is leading the housekeeping team,” says Anaskari.

He is very accessible for members of his housekeeping team to come to him with any problems or concerns they might have and he works hard to try to resolve it. An example of his simplicity and lack of pretense can be seen in the fact that despite owning a big car and having a big position, he chooses to ride his bicycle to work instead. The greatness of Kachane is that the higher up he is, the greater humility he possesses,” she concludes.
Kachane has also successfully developed leaders among his team and when sister properties open, his team members are often sought after to help with the opening or to transfer as permanent staff.
