Summary

My name is Jack and I am looking to transition from my current employment path and begin a career within the financial services industry. I have a very keen will to adapt to the industry and learn as much as I can, and can confirm that I am very coachable and will always be willing to learn.

I am currently 24 years of age and believe that it is the perfect time for me to embark on this new journey and really put everything I have into a career that I have a strong interest in outside of my current employment, and would love the opportunity to do what I love every day.

I bring to the table a can do attitude and a willingness to adapt to a team environment both with my current team bonding experiences and my vibrant personality in which I really make a priority to get along with my fellow work colleagues, as I am a firm believer that you really need to be comfortable with those around you, and for those within my team to be comfortable with me and a trust that I am a hard worker and will do what it takes to achieve the right results.

I am very computer literate, however I have had no previous finance experience within the workforce, but I can and will learn, and will do whatever it takes to build a strong career for myself. Thankfully, I have friends within the financial sector that are helping guide me on what it takes to succeed in this industry. I have learned so much already for them and see this as only the beginning.

I'm here for the long haul and will dedicate myself to achieving the best I possibly can, all I need is an opportunity.

Thank you for taking the time to read, and I look forward to liaising with you soon.
