Emmanuel Parcel
@emmanuelparcel
Experienced chef with strong hospitality, culinary and customer-service skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated chef and hospitality professional with hands-on experience across hotels, residential contracts, and food service operations. I prepare continental, intercontinental and African dishes, create home and branch menus, and manage kitchen inventory and procurement.
My background includes head-chef roles where I ensured food quality, kitchen accountability, and positive client relations, plus earlier roles in cashiering and customer service that strengthened my financial accuracy and guest-facing skills. I have worked in fast-paced hotel environments and as a residential chef on short-term contracts.
I am known for reliability, trustworthiness, and multitasking under pressure, and I seek opportunities to contribute culinary expertise while growing professionally within a hospitality-focused team.
