About Michelle Edmunds

Current Position as of December 27th, 2021. Front of House Manager for the Wellings of Picton. August, 2014 to December 24th, 2021 I held the full-time position of Club Manager at the Prince Edward Yacht Club. I accomplished many things during my time at the club including increasing memberships, docks & moorings occupancies, and hall rentals for both club and private events, due to excellent communication and promotion. I assisted with the transition of off-site bookkeeping to inhouse accounting and the changeover of manual daily sales recording to a POS system. I looked after the administration of a number of programs including "Officer of the Day", set up to assist visiting boaters. I have been responsible for the replacement of a new draught tap system and negotiated equipment and waste management contracts for the betterment of club finances. I successfully promoted the use of the club facilities for private rentals for various functions including weddings, Jack n’ Jill's, birthdays, anniversaries and Celebrations of Life. Ranging in size from small intimate affairs up to 150 people. In recent years there have been a number of challenges including flooding and Covid 19 restrictions, however, due to excellent organizational skills, a number of successful events were planned, including the 2017 welcome reception and dinner that was held at the club for the Canada C3’s first stop in Picton Bay. Responsibilities also included the management of bar and cleaning staff, including recruitment, termination, training, development of job descriptions, and assisting with payroll duties. I am a fair manager and I always had my staff's best interest in mind and welcomed their ideas and feedback on any issue, be it positive or negative. I looked after the ordering of bar inventory and office supplies. Assist with quarterly inventories and price adjustments. I worked with many vendors including The Beer Store and the LCBO and I was responsible for dealing with billing issues and making sure companies were paid in a timely manner. I looked after all member's accounts, including queries, new applications, invoicing, collection of outstanding amounts and volunteer hours.
