Assistant Manager
Shanklin, Isle Of Wight, United Kingdom
The Ocean View Hotel is part of a chain of hotels specializing in coaching holidays. I entered this employment as a trainee Assistant Manager, to learn about the hotel business as a whole. During my time at Ocean View, I trained in many aspects of the business, from running a restaurant, to managing the monthly wage budget. In July 2014 I was promoted to Assistant Manager. I became responsible for the management of a team of 25, this included the daily operation of a large restaurant, kitchen, a busy bar and reception, plus dealing with guest requests and all staffing issues, stock control for each department, monthly stock taking and all cash flow. Because of my previous employments in bars and music venues, I also booked all entertainment, and oversaw all activities on a nightly basis.
