Layton Russell
Experienced Barman
Front of House - Bar and waiting at Seaview Hotel
Background
Hi, I’m Layton Russell, a friendly, hardworking person with a real passion for hospitality and providing great customer service. I currently work as a barman and waiter at the Seaview Hotel, a high-end restaurant and hotel, where I’ve gained valuable experience serving food and drinks to a high standard in a fast-paced environment. I work well under pressure, enjoy being part of a team, and always aim to create a welcoming atmosphere for guests. I’m quick to learn, happy to muck in wherever needed, and love meeting new people. I’m now really excited about the opportunity to bring my skills and energy to a ski resort in Val Thorens . I think it would be an amazing experience both personally and professionally.
