Over my time at the windmill hotel my roles diversified. My role started as a duty manager and progressed to 2IC. I was also acting venue manger for a period of time which helped me immensely in this industry. My roles throughout my time in management at the windmill included but not limited to

-Rostering over 30 FOH staff and 10 kitchen staff on a week to week basis

-Being in charge of ordering stock

-Official trainer for all new staff

-Organising and running functions

-Weekly pays

-Wage control

-Staff management (getting the best out of staff)

The stag hotel is where i really progressed through the ranks of this industry. I started as a casual team member. progressed to team leader and then onto Duty Manager. I also had stints of being acting functions manager and acting venue manager. This is where I found love in this industry.

The stag hotel taught me how to manage staff throughout forever changing environments, whether we were flat out or quiet or anywhere in-between. I found my management style and understood how I wanted to people manage,

Although short in tenure, the holdfast hotel was instrumental in where i am today. I learnt the basics of bar work and social skills.
