Assistant Bar Manager
CurrentAt the Tap ‘n’ Barrel (a real ale bar) I’m the assistant manager of a small team that I provide training and guidance for. My managerial duties involve cashing up, distributing and discussing weekly rotas, providing stock takes and placing orders with suppliers. I open and close the bar as well as maintain the place by inspecting and cleaning the bar, cellar, toilets, windows, tables etc. It is my job to provide friendly warm-hearted customer service whilst ensuring a handful of tasks are simultaneously managed and dealt with. With how few staff there are it is essential to have the abilities to time manage, socialise and make informed decisions under pressure. I have to of course follow guidelines and health regulations as I handle food, ensuring our 5 star food hygiene rating as well as knowing the procedures for accidents within the bar.
