Good day I have 22 years of experience in various professional organisations both in South Africa and London where I have held positions as Operations Manager and Restaurant Manager. I have well-developed communication skills, always maintaining a mature, gracious and professional manner.  As I plan, organise and co-ordinate successfully, I am comfortable when asked to manage projects and perform general duties required to maintain the smooth functioning of a business. I am able to manage a variety of tasks and/or projects simultaneously by way of prioritising, a skill I learnt in the fast-paced hospitality industry. The characteristics that make me especially valuable in my position as manager of a business is the “hands-on” approach that I have towards the running of all operations, as well as my drive and passion to remedy problems and instate well-functioning systems.  I am a highly motivated, well presented and outgoing individual and my excellent work ethic, commitment, ability to use my own initiative and a positive attitude always ensure that I add real value to an organisation.  I have been given complete autonomy as the manager in the last four businesses I was employed by and have confidence in my abilities. I would greatly appreciate any information regarding vacancies within your company.  Kind regards, Jay Pretorius (***)-***-****
