Work History
Bartender
Omalleys Hotel
03.2024 - 05.2024
- This job entailed a very similar work ethic to my previous role at the Darlo bar. Some of the important details involved in this job were:
- Ensured compliance with health and safety regulations during service operations.
- Contributed to a positive work environment through effective teamwork and communication with colleagues.
- Maintained a clean and organized workspace, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.
- Kept bar presentable and well-stocked to meet customer needs.
Farm all rounder
Inkermans station
11.2022 - 12.2022
- This was one of the greatest experiences of my life. To go from standard city life jobs to this in the gulf (northern Queensland) was a real change in lifestyle. From putting out fires to feeding the cows lick, this job had every bit of excitement you could ask for. On some of the off days we would paint the housing facilities and feed the potties and chickens. We learnt how to ride motorbikes and drive lorries and even got taught how to fish, hunt, change tires and fix the water generators if anything was to overflow/ underflow.
Pizza delivery driver
Pizza Napoli
03.2022 - 08.2022
- I worked for a local pizza company delivering pizzas. This was very similar to Dominos (where I previously worked).
Barber
Cut & Ink
01.2022 - 08.2022
- From September 2021 to January 2022 I completed training to be a Barber. I went to Manchester to The London School of Barber (one of the leading schools) to learn the trade and practised for 3 months in detail. This is one of the best decisions I have ever made as over one year down the line I'm still in love with this job. I'm currently taking a slight break from it to travel. However, I will be sure to start back up when I’ve settled in an area. This job suits really well as I'm very articulate and enjoy chatting and meeting new people and styling / cutting hair/ beards etc.
Barman and cocktail specialist
Darlo Bar
01.2022 - 07.2022
- I was new to Sydney in January 2023 and wanted to work in a bar. I therefore completed my RSA and then started working at Darlo. Darol is a bustling, vibrant bar in Darlinghurst, Potts View, Sydney. Dogs are welcome and catered for, it offers a full selection of beers, wines and spirits and specialises in cocktails, as well as food. It regularly hosts a variety of Events, Parties and Specialty nights.
- I have been a barman and cocktail specialist there for the last 6 months, and moved on from Sydney and Darlo only to do more travelling. I really enjoyed working there and have been responsible for opening up the bar and closing down and being fully involved in all aspects of bar work. This includes: serving drinks and chatting to locals, making cocktails, serving food as well as cleaning and setting up the bar. I have enjoyed the diverse range of clientele and regulars the bar attracts, and am used to working in a busy and varied atmosphere.
Waiter
Taste of Bengal
05.2021 - 11.2021
- This job entailed taking orders and serving food and drinks to customers at this busy restaurant in a polite manner. When we had extra staff waiting on I would be asked to go out and deliver to the surrounding areas. This was a little different to my previous delivery roles as I would be delivering further a field, so this would require initiative to work out these specific addresses. During my time at this job I acquired patience and resilience.
Pizza delivery driver
Domino's
05.2021 - 09.2021
- During this period I delivered pizzas for the leading pizza company in the world. This would involve working out addresses and delivering the pizza in a perfect condition inside a short time zone. When not out on a delivery I would be helping serve customers on the tills or help boxing up the pizzas on the ovens. I obtained teamwork and initiative from my time at this particular job.
Shop Assistant (retail assistant)
Spar
07.2020 - 08.2021
- I worked in this retail shop throughout the covid period and for months afterwards. During this period I obtained many skills to add to my repertoire. This includes teamwork, communication, initiative and leadership. Some days I would work on the tills, which would require some mathematics in certain situations and other days I would stack shelves, help bring in new stock and sort out the backstock.
Barman
Heron & Brearley - Horse & Plough
04.2019 - 01.2020
- During my time in this work area I obtained many new skills, especially as this was my first job since turning 18. My job entailed pouring mainly beer and serving customers food from the kitchen. This job was good to build up my social interaction and communication skills as I had to be able to talk in a respectful manner and listen correctly to customers' food/ drink choices. Patience was another skill which I definitely obtained as there were multiple occasions where I would have to wait for; money during the paying stage and also when customers would get drunk and become violent and their speech would become slurred.
Warehouse assistant
Agrimark
05.2018 - 09.2018
- During Summer 2018, I worked in Agrimark as a warehouse assistant. My job was to help keep the huge warehouse stocked and load the vans, ready for delivery. I occasionally worked as a cashier when customers would come in and help them around the store. This job developed my teamwork and organisation skills as I would work with many different people every day and would help new employees in the warehouse.
