Hello, I'm Simphiwe.
Friendly, passionate and experienced bartender with a strong background in hospitality and guest service. Skilled in cocktail preparation, fast-paced service, and creating a welcoming atmosphere.
I have worked in various bars, hotels, and restaurants across South Africa, where I developed strong technical skills and a deep passion for bartending. Training at the European Bartender School in Cape Town further improved my skills and strengthened my confidence behind the bar. I thrive in high-pressure, high-volume environments and consistently deliver excellent service. I am now seeking an opportunity abroad to challenge myself at a higher level, grow professionally, and bring my energy and experience to an international team.
