About me

As a result driven professional with over 20 years of experience in the Hospitality industry, and over 10 years as Top Management Executive, I have gained experience and developed skills in New Venture Set Up, Financial Management and Business Transformation.

Multi unit and multi format F&B operations, extensive pre opening experience, strategic planning, project management, resource utilization, revenue growth, and cost reduction form a large part of the experience I have garnered over the years. I have, time and again, significantly impacted bottom-line profitability, by streamlining less-than-efficient procedures to boost productivity and sales.

With a strong commitment to high ethical and professional standards, exceptional leadership skills, planning and management abilities, I am keen on an opportunity pursuant to my skills and experience within the Hospitality Industry in GCC.

I would also like to point out that I am available for immediate placement and relocation. I possess valid UAE and Indian driving licenses should the job so require.
