• Strong product knowledge of whisky, spirits, house‑special cocktails, and digestifs.
• Conduct staff training and engage guests with confidence and finesse.
• Manage wine lists, supplier relations, and beverage cost control.

• Create memorable guest moments through intuitive service, engagement, and table presence.
• Resolve issues promptly with tact and professionalism.
• Build relationships with VIPs, regulars, partners, and event clients.

• Provide timely, accurate weekly and monthly reports to the Director.
• Drive revenue through upselling, events, and menu pairing strategies.
• Ensure compliance with licensing, safety, hygiene, and audit standards.

• 15–20 years’ experience in premium/fine‑dining, fusion, or high‑volume restaurants.
