03 / Meet Wilson

I understand the work behind the welcome.

My approach comes from working behind the bar and leading hospitality teams: making service happen while organising stock, menus, people and events.

My experience includes bar management at Dolceamaro Mannheim, bar leadership and pre-opening work at ATLANTIC Hotel Heidelberg, and bartending at Hotel Königstuhl. Those experiences shape a practical approach built around the realities of a working venue.

We begin by observing your operation, agree the priorities with you, and create tools your team can use. The goal is clear ownership and a system that keeps working after the first conversation.
