An accomplished Project and Operations Manager who enjoys partnering with organisations to improve overall business efficiency, achieve brand growth, streamline operations and deliver exceptional profitability results. Having worked as a Chef in the earlier part of my career for a Michelin starred restaurant, I have an unfailing ability to work under pressure, ensure customer satisfaction and a first-hand understanding of successful hospitality operations. My current role as a Venue Development Manager for Café Brands has seen me successfully lead multi-million dollar projects in the development of four new Mexico restaurants, two new Columbus Coffee cafés and six Columbus café refurbishment projects. I have been instrumental in these projects from inception to completion handling venue identification, site acquisitions, contract negotiation, budget management, use of sub-contractors through to overseeing the design and artistic staging of all venues. Prior to my role of Venue Development Manager, I have worked as an Operations Manager for Cobb Group Ltd and Burger Wisconsin. As an Operations Manager I gained exceptional skills in people leadership and have overseen teams of 130 staff. Recruitment, training, coaching and mentorship have been key components of the people leadership element of these roles and I pride myself on a strong ability to produce high-performing staff. Indeed, a particular new store manager whom I recruited and trained later went onto become store owner and recipient of the ‘Supreme Franchisee of the Year’ Westpac Award. I have a proven track record of yielding excellent business outcomes both financially and operationally. Business profitability has been achieved frequently through pioneering product development, implementation of cost saving initiatives, confident negotiation capability and a strong understanding of consumer drivers. Key operational improvements have been achieved as seen through my development of health and safety and staff induction and training programmes. Key areas of expertise include: • Project management • Operations management • Venue development • Financial reporting • Budgeting • Contract negotiation • Procurement • Franchise operations • Leadership • Staff management and training • Recruitment • Supplier relationships
