Simon Connolly is a Deputy Manager at Cru Wine Investment Ltd.. Colleagues describe him as "Simon has a quiet disposition, aura of calm and an ability to “get the job done”. He has been an immense support to me joining The Bradley Hare and helping me shape the structures that make the business work. Over the past few months, I’ve thrown some real curve balls at Simon, and he has handled each one with remarkable professionalism and efficiency, including managing a smooth transition to a new restaurant booking system. He’s also led some fantastic initiatives, like his “Simon Says…” training videos, which have been a big hit with the team. I know he has been an invaluable mentor and friend to Conor Riches, the assistant Front of House Manager, and others. It’s clear that Conor has grown and learned so much from working alongside Simon. I would not hesitate to recommend Simon for any role in the future and I am so excited to see him move on from The Bradley Hare and take on a role as GM."
