Work History
Supervisor/Restaurant Waiter
Uncle Pete's Restaurant Bantry
Cork
07.2021 - 08.2023
In this position, I was hired on as a manager for a newly started business and was taken and shadowed the former manager to learn the necessary skills required to fulfill the role
For example, stock-taking and ensuring the restaurant does not run short of needed produce or drinks
Ensuring on delivery that the correct quantity specified had been delivered, as well as that the quality of said goods was to the highest standard for use by the business
Also, the need as well to ensure that staff are working to a minimum level and that customers are seeing a business where the employees are working hard and so feel assured and looked after during their time on the premises
I was also entrusted with the responsibility of opening up the business and making sure that close up the prior night had been done correctly, such as with the proper locking of the doors and clean up of workspaces
On my own shifts, I was given the responsibility of locking up the restaurant after my own checks were done to make sure that lock up was to be done properly
Again I furthered my interpersonal skills in resolving customer disputes in regards to employees, food, or atmosphere.
Bar Staff
Sandy Park Stadium
Exeter
09.2021 - 04.2023
Managed cash transactions including credit cards, debit cards and cash payments from guests quickly and efficiently.
Utilized knowledge of cocktails, liquors, wines and beers to suggest items to customers based on their preferences or budget constraints.
Greeted customers and provided excellent customer service.
Organized and restocked the bar area.
Bartender
Terra Blue
Marbella
06.2020 - 08.2020
I was hired as an aid to the owner of the business specifically for working on Fridays and Saturdays when extra help was needed during the weekend rush
Typically I would be attempting to oversell to customers as much as possible and learnt how to make the house drinks and cocktails.
Waiter
Pedros Beach Restaurant & Bar
Marbella
05.2019 - 07.2019
Here I learned how to work as a waiter and was an integral part of the floor team required to be on the ball when in the busy lunch periods
In Spanish restaurants, this usually starts around 1 or 2 and will last until around 6 or 7
This area, in particular, is an especially tourist-heavy destination so rushes would usually lead to long table waits and lines to enter the bar and restaurants
To work in that environment requires then you to be working at an incredibly high pace continuously for the majority of your shift
While also needing to be cordial and friendly with customers this environment trains any staff member necessary skills to work in any service environment.
