Summary

Multiple years of previous experience in kitchen management. Consistently able to ensure that equipment is available on time during busy periods, my old job used to have 'event nights' with multiple course meals which required me to develop those skills. I know how to coordinate and communicate with other staff, and keep kitchen logistics running on time.
