“My name is Eid Dube. I work in the Bar and Service department of De Hoek Country Hotel in Magaliesberg. I started in 2006 as a Barista, I am now Head Barman. My key responsibilities are to look after our guests and count stock levels. I’ve been working in the hospitality industry for 14 years, having begun my journey at De Hoek.
My biggest strengths are communication and understanding. I love my job, interacting with our guests about talking about our wines. I’m a go-getter and full of life and in my spare time, I research my wine journey. I would like to become a Junior Sommelier and I would like to achieve that goal in three years. In years to come, I would like to become a fully-fledged Sommelier for a group of hotels. I would love to travel to France and Italy. If I won the lottery I would share it with the homeless shelters for abused kids.”
