Summary
I have recently arrived to Australia on a Working Holiday Visa and I am seeking employment immediately. I’ve previously completed a first class honours bachelor’s degree in Sports Management & Coaching. I have been working hands on in customer services for the past ten years across various housekeeping, retail, and hospitality roles. It is something I have excelled in, with an early progression to becoming a store manager.
