Summary

I am a motivated Waitress with engaging personality and flexible approach. Upbeat, friendly and anticipating customer needs to facilitate the enjoyable dining experiences

Perviously I have worked in the hospitality industry in both Sydney and London. I have experience in fine dining and fast pasted bistro style establishments. I enjoy the always changing dynamics of restaurant work and the support and cooperation with the kitchen bar and all and team members.

For the past twelve years I have worked as a Vineyard Supervisor. My responsibilities were many ranging from team management, daily work reports, detailed recording of work done by individuals for contract purposes and all the related paperwork. I was responsible for coordination with the company the team and the Manager responsible for the Vineyard.

I am looking for a change of direction and wish to utilize my hospitality history along with the leadership, communication and people management skills in future positions.
