  • Data-Driven Improvement
    : Comfortable analysing guest feedback and operational data to spot trends and implement effective solutions.
  • Hands-On & Proactive
    : A problem-solver with a can-do attitude who's happy to be visible on the floor and lead from the front, across multiple accounts.
