I had the privilege to work with David at Rydges Hotels & Resorts when he was the General Manager at Rydges Plaza Cairns. David was a very supportive General Manager who knows how to motivate his team to achieve excellent financial results. Very passionate about the hospitality industry, and a strong leader and mentor in all aspects of the hotel operation who is always very communicative with his team and always encourages and is willing to develop those around him. With a strong eye for detail in F&B operations this has lead him to develop and implement some key winning concepts in the hotels he has managed. A GM who goes out into the market and supports & recognizes incremental revenue opportunities through sales and marketing strategies and has developed strong relations with clients and other industry professionals wherever he has been based. My time working for David has added value to my own development and if there was ever an opportunity to work with him again it would be a pleasure to do so.
