📖 Summary
Having joined Gaucho in early 2010 as part of the opening management team of Gaucho Leeds. I quickly decided that the move to London with Gaucho was best for my career, and my development. In 2012 I was made Managing Partner of Gaucho Chancery Lane, before moving to Richmond in the summer of 2013. In late 2014, I was given the opportunity to take the role of General Manager of a new Roka Opening in Aldwych, before recently taking the role of Opening General Manager at 'The Ivy Chelsea Garden', a restaurant backed by Caprice Holdings. I have a passion for all things hospitality, and believe that the secret to success is a great knowledge, a great desire to succeed, but most importantly remembering that “this is hospitality”. I have love for food and drink, and just as importantly exceptional service. I enjoy opportunities to share that passion, with both my guests, and my staff.General Manager @ General Manager of The Ivy Chelsea Garden - Opening March 2015. www.theivychelseagarden.com From January 2015 to Present (1 year) London, United KingdomGeneral Manager @ General Manager at Roka From October 2014 to January 2015 (4 months) London, United KingdomManaging Partner @ From February 2012 to October 2014 (2 years 9 months) London, United KingdomGeneral Manager @ From September 2011 to February 2012 (6 months) Assistant General Manager @ From March 2010 to August 2011 (1 year 6 months) Leeds, United KingdomFront of House Manager @ From May 2009 to December 2009 (8 months) Restaurant Manager @ From April 2008 to April 2009 (1 year 1 month) Leeds, United KingdomBachelor's degree, Teacher Education and Professional Development, Specific Subject Areas, 2:1 @ Leeds Metropolitan University From 2006 to 2009 Daniel Smith is skilled in: Management, Leadership, Hospitality, Team Management, Restaurants, Hospitality Management, Food & Beverage, Hospitality Industry, Catering, Pre-opening, Front Office, Revenue Analysis, Food, Restaurant Management, Event Management, Wine, Customer Service
