Sociable but serious workplace

Bar Supervisor (Former Employee) - Egham, ENG - 3 July 2014

As Bar Supervisor, I assisted the on-duty manager in the operational running of SURHUL. This included function nights, a high-pressured, fast-paced environment, as well as the general running of venues throughout the week. As a long-term staff member, I was asked, on occasion, to look after the bar office and open the venue when managers have been called in to meetings. My responsibilities included excellent customer service (this also applied to the bar staff position) as well as helping with the development of new, or returning, bar staff. I provided a confidential and understanding link between management and the staff and regularly attended to sensitive issues. Throughout my time at SURHUL, I gained a high level of communication, customer service, time management and responsibility. Although the job was often stressful, I learned to cope with a high-pressure environment.

Pros

Sociable job with prospects of promotion

Cons

Long, antisocial hours
