Katie Channing

Friendly, energetic and highly motivated hospitality professional with over three years of front-of-house experience. Proven ability to lead teams, create positive customer experiences, and handle fast-paced, high-pressure environments with professionalism. Passionate about providing excellent service and contributing to a welcoming, well-run team culture.

In addition to maintaining an impressive academic performance, I have pursued my passion for sports, earning recognitions as "Sports Scholarship 2014-2019" and "Sportswoman of the Year 2018" at The Kingsley School, Royal Leamington Spa. My ambition to excel is reflected in the numerous achievements including:

• Attaining the Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award.
• Achieving an A* in my NEA Geography coursework.
• Serving as a Business and Economics tutor to students in sixth form.

To further develop my leadership abilities, I obtained the SLQ Level 3 Qualification Sports Leadership, building on five years of experience representing Warwickshire County. This foundation fuelled my ambition and led to my role as Vice Captain of Leeds University Women's 3rd team (2023-24), where I was responsible for enhancing organisational skills, promoting team performance, and supporting the well-being of 30 players in the team.

My dedication to excellence and personal growth is mirrored in my interest in business. For the past five years, I have maintained a strong focus on pursuing a business career and am eager to explore various paths within the field.

Since the age of 17, I have actively embraced employment opportunities that have instilled a robust work ethic, enhanced my skills in customer value creation, satisfaction, financial management, and personal independence.

Through these varied experience, I have evolved into a confident conscientious, and ambitious individual, passionate about teamwork, leadership, and building a successful future.
