What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in a professional kitchen where I can manage teams, optimize operations, ensure food safety, and deliver high-quality, diverse cuisine while supporting staff development.

I am a creative chef manager with over a decade of experience directing breakfast, lunch and dinner services and leading kitchen teams of 15+ staff. I specialize in menu execution across Asian, Indian and Mediterranean cuisines while maintaining strict adherence to health and safety standards.

I oversee all aspects of kitchen operations including food ordering, inventory balancing, food and labour budgeting, and minimizing food spoilage through effective planning. I have a strong track record of training and supervising staff and conducting regular audits to ensure compliance and quality.

My leadership emphasizes a strong safety culture and motivated teamwork; I run weekly and monthly audits and prioritize dietary restrictions and guest service standards. I am detail-oriented, decisive, and focused on maintaining excellent service and operational efficiency.

I hold a high school diploma with honours in Chemistry and certifications including FoodSafe, WHMIS, CSTS, CSO, and First Aid/CPR with AED. I am committed to continuous improvement and delivering consistent, high-quality dining experiences.
