Summary

A results-driven professional with a strong focus on efficient time management and profit maximisation. Demonstrates resilience under pressure and strategic thinking to achieve business objectives. Committed to leveraging skills for continued growth and success in future endeavours.

Highly-motivated Sous Chef with dedicated work ethic and can-do attitude seeks opportunity to build upon strong menu creation, preparation and presentation skills. Thrives under pressure to run productive stations with high-quality output. Coaches junior kitchen members to uplift team capabilities. However I feel I'd be better suited to a job in finance as I can feel my brain tingling with enthusiasm ready for more mathematics.
