Hello, I'm Helen.
Driven by a love of great drinks, I retrained at the European Bartender School after a career in the third sector. Now an events bartender in a luxury hotel, seeking to refine my craft in a standards-led cocktail bar.
• Cocktails – Classic and contemporary builds, with strong balance and execution • Spirits – Knowledge of production, styles and flavour profiles (including amari, vermouth, liqueurs) • Service – Warm, engaging, and attentive guest service • Teamwork – Supporting busy service and maintaining flow behind the bar • Bar Organisation – Prep, batching, and maintaining an efficient, well-kept station • Composure – Calm, confident, and consistent under pressure
