Are you looking at becoming a Sommelier? Do you need a Sommelier resume? They curate a wine list that complements a restaurant’s cuisine offering and delivers excellent service and advice to customers on selecting the right wines to match their meals. There is, however, a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to deliver the perfect glass of wine. As a Sommelier, you can choose to work as a Sommelier or Wine Buyer in restaurants or hotels or as a sales representative or retail buyer.
Currently, there are only 90 positions for a Sommelier across Australia, with a common salary of $65K per year. While it is an extremely competitive role to get into, The Perfect Resume team has helped others to land an interview in the Hospitality & Tourism industry. We believe we can increase your chances with our resume writing services also!
To apply for a Sommelier position, your resume will need to prove to recruiters and prospective employers that you will have the following transferable skills:
- Engaging with guests and determining which wines best fit their needs. This involves finding out which type of wine varieties they like and what their budget is.
- Quality assuring wines before serving in case they are corked or flawed.
- Serving the wine, which includes using the right technique, glassware and decanting.
- Maintaining engagement, conversation and a high level of service throughout the dining experience.
- At the end of service, clean up the decanters and glasses, put wines away, polish glasses and decanters, and restocking bottles.
- Studying wine, constantly tasting new producers, vintages, and regions, and attending industry events (often in your spare time).
Due to the high volume of applications for a Sommelier received every year, qualifications that would increase your chances of landing an interview include a Sommeliers Australia accredited education program, such as the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) and/or the Court of Master Sommeliers education program, which offer a knowledge base on which to develop your working practice or achieve Master Sommelier status, which involves completing a three-part exam as part of the Master Sommelier diploma.
