What I'm looking for

I am looking for a structured environment that values organization and teamwork.

I am an experienced professional specializing in operational management and process organization, particularly within the gastronomy and tourism sectors. My career has been defined by a commitment to efficiency and a proactive approach to problem-solving. I have successfully managed projects, coordinated teams, and developed creative solutions that enhance operational effectiveness.

As the Owner and Manager of Hippotético, I have honed my skills in daily operations management, including staff scheduling, inventory control, and supplier negotiations. I implemented cost-saving strategies and process improvements that significantly enhanced our operational efficiency. My experience as a Kitchen Manager and Sous-Chef in various restaurants further solidified my expertise in maintaining high health and safety standards while optimizing kitchen operations.

I am now seeking a stable professional opportunity in a structured and focused work environment where I can leverage my skills in management, organization, planning, and communication to contribute to a team-oriented atmosphere.
