Customer-focused restaurant professional seeking administrative and client-facing roles with strong communication and reliability.
BelgiumWhat I'm looking for
I’m a motivated, adaptable professional with customer-facing experience across restaurants and school environments. I bring strong communication and teamwork, and I stay calm and effective in fast-paced settings where guest satisfaction matters.
I completed a diploma in Childcare with hands-on internship experience in schools, strengthening my interpersonal and observational skills. I’m confident supervising and caring for children while maintaining a safe, supportive environment and communicating clearly with different people.
In restaurant roles as a server, host, kitchen assistant, and assistant manager support, I handled customer service, ensured guest satisfaction, and supported smooth operations during peak hours. I’ve also done opening/closing duties, collaborated with my team to maintain cleanliness and organization, and helped with daily kitchen operations like dishwashing and preparing/serving desserts.
I’m now seeking opportunities in customer service, administrative, or client-focused roles. I’m reliable, quick to learn, and confident delivering excellent service while maintaining positive relationships with clients, students, and colleagues.
