What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a customer-focused hospitality or customer service role where I can welcome guests, support teams, and keep improving—working in an environment that values clear communication and meeting objectives under pressure.

I bring a strong customer service foundation and the ability to perform under pressure, consistently meeting objectives. Across roles at Newcastle Airport and in hospitality, I’ve developed exceptional communication in English, Italian, Spanish, Hebrew, and Romanian, and I’m dedicated to ongoing skills development and workplace performance improvement.

I’ve led teams as a Team Leader at Newcastle Airport and directed daily operations as a Restaurant Manager, handling scheduling, delegating tasks, and motivating people to progress toward goals. I also support front-line service and administration—welcoming guests, answering phones, managing email and mail correspondence, calendaring, and ensuring food quality and presentation—so customers feel cared for and teams stay efficient.
