Personal Profile
I am a BA Hons marketing management graduate who has worked in a variety of roles that have allowed me to consistently
develop and demonstrate my key skills and abilities in areas such as delivering high levels of customer service, planning and
organisation, strong communication and delegation, flexibility and adaptability along with leadership and self-motivation. Though
more biased towards the engineering industries, having worked in car showrooms and plumbing/heating, I believe I have a variety
of transferable skills that can be further developed in another sector if I'm given the opportunity. With proven skills in achieving
targets and providing direction, coupled with an ambitious and dedicated persona, I'm a confident decision maker and am now
looking for a position in a reputable company where I can continue to develop and grow, in order to become a successful and
reputable individual.
