Gloria Juste has been appointed as Corporate Senior Director of Social Responsibility at Palladium Hotel Group
Palladium Hotel Group has taken a step forward in the deployment of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy with the appointment of Gloria Juste as Corporate Senior Director of Social Responsibility. Juste will work on pre-existing projects, in addition to important new initiatives which will focus on the people working for the group and local communities with which the company operates.
The hotel group's CSR committee, backed by the Chairman's Office and the Management Committee, is dedicated to affecting change in all areas of the company. Through this committee, Palladium Hotel Group will consolidate measures focused on environmental protection and circular economy principles, while at the same time placing a special focus on people. A priority for the area, led by Juste and her team, will be the implementation of comprehensive support measures for Palladium Hotel Group's 13,000 valued employees, their families, and the local communities in which the group operates across six countries in Europe and the Americas.
Gloria Juste holds a law degree from Comillas Pontifical University and a Master's degree in Tax Law from the Centro de Estudios Garrigues. She was able to combine her academic training with various voluntary roles in Spain and abroad, which led her to launch the Mano Amiga Foundation to support vulnerable children and families. Since then, she has started social initiatives such as Mashumano, Wolters Kluwer Formación, SAVIA and BYG, among others. In 2016 she took over the Project Management of the Endesa Foundation, where she has remained until now. In this role, she designed and created new areas of the Foundation, such as Education, Employment, Environment, Social Assistance and Corporate Volunteering.
Over 50 years, Palladium Hotel Group has developed various Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives to address three key focuses: the circular economy, the environment and the social sphere. Now, the hotel group is taking another step forward in this commitment by focusing on offering training and education opportunities to improve access to the labour market, under the premise that the best social aid is employment.
