Assistant manager Review

Assistant manager at a bar and restaurant. Running the pub managing shifts and staff ordering stock both front and back of house. Dealing with customer enquiries. Ensuring we are compliant with health and safety legislation. Supervising shaft and processing staffs rosters. Making sure the pub runs smoothly with no customer complaints dealing with any issues arising

I have learnt a lot during my course. Time management people management and the different styles of learning that people have a nature preponderance towards. Equality and diversity within the work place and the benefits of a diverse group or employees. Leadership styles and how the fit within your current workplace

I enjoy learning and obtaining new knowledge. It has practical benefits with my personal development and within my current job role. The MDP courses have been massively helpful in addition to the online fuse trading provided to me by lifetime training. It’s also helpful meeting other apprentices completing the same programme

The programme has been very well organised and structured. I have plenty of notice when my courses will be and time off with my employer to attend. My trainer attends my workplace and this is always arranged at a mutually convienient time. The structure was a bit difficult to following in the beginning and I could have done with some one to one time to map this out for me

I have had support in the fact that I was able to apply for this course and it was agreed. I have managed to get some time off to attend the course once a month. Sadly not really any other support. Time with my GM or BDM wounding have helped massively

My training provider Stephen has been really nice and has put me at ease. He has sent me clear out lines with what I need to achieve and by what dates it needs completing. He answers my calls and texts in a timely manner. I would like a bit more time with him so I don’t feel rushed

I feel that I so continuing to learn to be better in my current role. I am learning better management styles and more productive ways to plan my time. I’ve learnt that my personal development can be With in my workplace and I can learn from what has gone well or not so well

Currently at the cricketers where I work we don’t have any extra curricular activities. There is a large percentage of young staff working for us and they have became a really close group in and outside work. They are always meeting up for drinks. Sometimes playing football and are playing a holiday together

No

I feel that the emphasis on cutting team hours and wages is ridiculously difficult for staff to cope with. The new team hours system just seems to want to take unpaid breaks from staff. Sometimes breaks still not being taken and I know the company line is to plan better to ensure breaks. This doesn’t always work expially when there are constrictions with how many staff are in the rota in the first place. I think they pretend to care about staff but I’m reality it’s just profit

Be prepared to work very hard. Take any training opertuniites that you can and make sure that if you have been stopped money for a break you take it or complain. Be prepared to work when u don’t want to and struggle to have a social life. One Benefit is staff discount so use that
