About Marie Faherty

I am a highly skilled marketing specialist with extensive experience leading marketing and service operations in the food service and hospitality industry. Passionate about the customer experience, I excel at developing new brand concepts that meet emerging customer needs and align with corporate objectives. My abilities in this area include market research, concept development, competitive analysis, stakeholder management, product development, and digital media. Another area of strength for me is operations: I have spearheaded daily, financial, and administrative operations for both established and newly-opened sites. In this capacity, I have developed outstanding team leadership competencies, including hiring, on-boarding, training, supervising, developing and coaching staff and managers. My human resource skills also encompass administrative, union, and compliance matters.
