At Your Service

Evander began his hospitality career without realising it while growing up in the family business at home in South Sligo. He then graduated with a degree from the ATU - Atlantic Technological University Galway City in Bar Management. Evander acquired his Hospitality Expertise during his time in the Sligo Park Hotel and the renowned 5-star Ashford Castle in Co Mayo, before joining Hayfield Manor. While working in these properties, Evander progressed through the ranks by nurturing his eye for service excellence, and detail in the 5-star environment. 

The idea of travelling became attractive to Evander and along his way he worked in a 5-star resort in Florida and the luxury of Seabourn Cruise Ships where he was able to balance his travelling and career hand in hand. Evander joined the team at Hayfield Manor in May 2018 as Food and Beverage Manager before progressing to the role of Hotel Manager and most recently General Manager. Evander still has a passion for travel, each winter enjoying his annual skiing trip, and during the summer, if you cannot find Evander in Hayfield Manor, he is almost certainly somewhere in the grounds of Pairc Ui Chaoimh as an avid Gaa fan. To recharge his batteries he is an active triathlete which he thoroughly enjoys. 

Above everything else he is committed to the benefits of encouraging a positive team spirit here at Hayfield Manor and is motivated by delivering the highest standards for all of our guests.
