Nicholas G

Motivated and adaptable individual with experience in hospitality, retail and sales. I have developed strong transferable skills, such as, communication, customer service, problem-solving and sales skills, with a proven ability to learn quickly and perform calm under pressure. From organising bar events to becoming a top three salesperson, I consistently strive to achieve strong results. I'm hardworking, resilient and eager to apply myself to a new challenge.

Bartender at The Register Club (2025-04 – Present)

Currently I work as a bartender in The Register Club, a fine-dining restaurant; therefore, I learnt how to offer guest first-class service, making sure their time in our venue was better than perfect. To achieve this, we listen carefully to guest specific needs, be attentive and genuine and offer complementary surprises, when needed.

Bartender at The Black Bird (2022-07 – 2024-02)

I've worked as a bartender, doing a variety of tasks in The Register Club and in the past in Black Bird. The Black Bird is an extremely busy bar; therefore, I developed my efficiency and multitasking skills, and I memorised 20 cocktail recipes in my first 2 weeks to ensure the bar ran smoothly.

Retail assistant at Slaters (2021-08 – 2022-11)

I worked in Slaters Menswear, helping customers find the perfect suit for their style. In this time, I improved my customer service, communication skills, problem solving and selling strategies and I became one of the top 3 salesmen in the branch.

Field salesman at Castle13 (2021-06 – 2021-08)

I worked as a door-to-door salesman, in the energy sector in summer 2021. In this time, I trained to build impulse, rapport and spot buying signs. To be effective in sales I learnt to listen carefully to the customer and have in-depth knowledge about the products/services.

Knocking on at least 120 doors a day, I secured 2-3 commissions. This taught me to face challenges head on, with positivity and tireless work ethic. In addition, it taught me to know my audience and adapt my approach to better connect with the customer.
