About Assen

From my beginnings in the dining room 20 years ago to obtaining an MBA in hotel management, I have built a rich and varied career in the field, marked by encounters with inspiring people who trusted me.

Over the past ten years, in addition to creating a hotel and restaurant audit and consulting firm, I have contributed to the creation of significant projects in the cultural sector:

• Creation of the restaurant division for the Grand Théâtre de Provence;
• Participation in the launch, within the Theaters team, of the Easter Festival in Aix en Provence, a major classical music event.
• Creation of the restaurant/catering service division for Cosquer Méditerranée in Marseille.

My professional career in the hotel and restaurant industry has been characterized by my ability to develop operational strategies and lead teams towards excellence.

I propose to make available:

• My acquired experience from working in all service positions, from procurement and the kitchen to restaurant operations management and obtaining a Master's degree in management through VAE (Validation of Acquired Experience).
• My managerial approach that values people and teamwork.
• My ability to manage various subjects and projects concurrently, prioritizing actions with commitment, loyalty, and passion.

I remain at your disposal to discuss my application in more detail and to arrange an interview at your convenience to discuss a collaboration for a transitional or seasonal management assignment.

Eager to gain international experience in the development of my company, let's discuss a win-win collaboration.

Please accept, Madam, the expression of my distinguished salutations.
