Summary

Having worked in the hospitality industry for over 20 years I have developed the ability to thrive under pressure, adapt to new environments and procedures, excellent time management skills, interpersonal skills and recognising the way to bring out the best in my colleagues and team members.

When I transitioned to my current role at Reece Plumbing, I have gained solid experience as a Delivery Driver with 5 years of experience in warehouse shipping and receiving, including forklift operation, merchandise loading and maintaining on-time deliveries. I'm a team player as well as a reliable staff member who has been able to step into leadership roles and supervisory positions when required.
