I am currently bartending, waitressing, and a gaming attendant at Kyabram Club. I am undertaking a Bachelor of Business with a Major in Marketing, Swinburne Online. I have previous experience as a Manager at Echuca and Moama McDonald's. I have excellent customer service. I strive to always be welcoming and kind to every person I encounter. I have immense experience in how to deal with stressful situations and can easily diffuse any tension/issues I encounter. I accomplish this by the way in which I conduct myself and approach people/situations with a calm, assertive demeanour. I have experience in product quality, month-end close counts, hiring, and training employees, and fellow managers. I have experience in following several policies and procedures in health and food safety. I am incredibly driven and motivated. I believe in 'leading by example' and 'practicing what you preach'. This entails that I will set an exemplary standard. I feel this job opportunity is the step in the right direction that I have been seeking and aligns with the career path I envision for myself. While I have acquired a lot of experience in my career so far, there is still a lot I wish to learn and accomplish. I am highly receptive to training, open to constructive feedback, and able to quickly grasp new concepts. I have a very analytical, yet creative mind. This means I can envision ideas and new ways of approaching opportunities and make calculated decisions that are logical, yet innovative.
