Summary
As a passionate and dedicated hospitality professional with over 15 years' experience within the industry in a variety of roles, I've been fortunate enough to work alongside some top talent within destination businesses within the UK, New Zealand and Australia. Progressing from a bars focused background through to an operations and head of beverage role at one of London's most desirable all-day dining groups has afforded the opportunity to lead and grow multi-level and multi-outlet teams, whilst simultaneously overseeing the strategic operation of bars and forging long-standing supports and activation relationships with key brand partners. Project focused and venue opening consultation with a multi-site UK based hotel group has also been a recent experience.
