Welcome to Almeida Recruitment
Hospitality Premier Staffing Solutions
Started my recruitment career at CaterPeople. Here, I had the opportunity to work with excellent hospitality professionals and properties including: Lympstone Manor, Seren Collection, Whatley Manor, to name a few.
Mar 07, 2016In my 15 years in Hospitality, I had the opportunity to work in 4 and 5-star Luxury Hotels and also in Rosette and 2 Michelin star properties. I learned my craft from starting as a Commis de Rang and worked my way up to Management. I retain a passion for service, particularly wine service. I continue to work for friends in the industry when time allows.
Feb 01, 2001My higher education was in languages and I speak fluent Spanish, Italian and French as well as my native Portuguese and English. I hold a WSET level 3 qualification and CMS Wine Certificate. I have been lucky enough to compete in a range of hospitality competitions, winning Waiter of The Year at Hotelympia on one occasion.
