About

🇬🇧 After an intensive coaching session, it became clear: my heart lies in the hospitality industry. I am working on developing my own hospitality concept in France, but I am open to a suitable challenge within an existing hospitality business: for example, as an assistant manager, operations manager or in a role that matches my experience as a hospitality consultant. I support hospitality and retail companies with operational optimisation, quality audits, guest experience, service improvement and team dynamics. I work hands-on, think strategically and bring structure, energy and overview. If the right match presents itself, this can develop into a long-term collaboration.
