What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior F&B leadership role in a luxury hotel where I can lead multi-outlet operations, improve profitability, mentor teams, and maintain top-tier food-safety and guest satisfaction standards.

I am a dynamic Food & Beverage leader with over 20 years' experience in luxury 5-star hotels, leading multi-outlet, high-volume operations and pre-opening teams. I have a strong record in budget management, revenue optimization, vendor relations, HACCP compliance, and building high-performing teams that improve guest satisfaction and reduce costs.

At Swissôtel Al Maqam and Raffles Makkah I led operations for thousands of covers per service, delivered measurable improvements—15% higher guest satisfaction, 8% annual cost reduction, 12% waste reduction—and maintained zero critical food-safety violations. I excel at implementing process improvements, staff training, and data-driven decisions that elevate brand standards and profitability.
