About With over 20 years experience in catering I have extensive knowledge in different cuisines and have acquired several skills that enable me to work well under pressure. I am great with customers and am able to listen to and accommodate their requests regardless of how unusual and unique they may be. I am an easy-going individual and have lived and worked outside my own country and adapted well to the different cultures and customs of fellow employees.
I understand that the job requires me to be available to guests 24/7. My strengths include planning ahead allowing me to purchase and store required ingredients which are versatile allowing me to make last minute requests. I have experienced the challenges yacht work brings and I know I have what it takes to do the job.
I take pride in my job and I aim to exceed my customer’s expectations including fellow crew members. I am in possession of STCW certificate, ENG1 medical certificate, food hygiene and culinary certificates.
Amongst my achievments from last year and this year working on Yachts , a guest on last years charter contacted me privately to cater for a private event for his family in his country, and this year we had Sigma convention where i had to cater daily on my own for over 60 people lunch Buffet style food and then in the evening 20 people plated for 5 days.
I am a non-smoker and non-drinker. I embrace a healthy lifestyle where possible. My plating can be viewed on Instagram Jamesrizzochef
