I was responsible of conducting a team to follow the regulations of the 'Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act' and trained them in the expectations of hospitality etiquette. I interviewed possible new hires and managed stock and deliveries. I also supervised the Gaming room and made sure that all harm minimisation laws were followed.
