Will Ward

Creative and reliable employee with a proven track record in hospitality and retail management. I have 10 years experience in customer-focused Operations, including over 3 years of experience in the diving industry working as a SCUBA and Emergency First Response Instructor, overseas, where I learned the ins and outs of running remote island resorts and retail stores. My experience also includes over 3 years of experience in retail sales, operations, merchandising and customer service, and over 3 years experience in hospitality including coworking and restaurant operations and luxury hotel management.

I thrive in a fast-paced team environment but am not afraid to tackle the task alone. My energy comes from my passion for working with people and delivering results that benefit the business. My creative content has earned thousands of followers on social media and includes HD video of coral reefs, shipwrecks, sharks and a wide spectrum of rare marine life. Please contact me for a variety of professional references.

I have been working in retail and hospitality operations for 10 years, for companies such as Saks Fifth Avenue where I served as Operations Manager for 2 years, and Nordstrom where I currently serve as Operations Specialist. I have also worked for apparel companies J. Crew and Harrow Sports. I am ultra passionate about ocean conservation and have also worked as a Dive Instructor in Fiji, Indonesia, New Zealand and Costa Rica. I am customer obsessed, reliable and show up every day ready to take on the task with a positive attitude.

I graduated from Boston College in 2018 with a bachelor of arts. I majored in Economics and wrote my thesis on Immigration Economics. I studied a wide range of topics including Spanish, History, Statistics, Philosophy and Filmmaking.
