Summary

I am a Dedicated Individual , with over 20 years of Solid Work Experience . I would like an opportunity to prove myself in The Disability Sector by obtaining a job in this field and sharing my goodwill and expertise.

I have a Proven Track Record of providing support and assistance to a variation of different people with very different needs and have happily and fully delivered and met the needs of these people.

Whilst working at The Phillip Kennedy Centre , my skills were tested and proven over and over whilst working with people that had a vast variety of disabilities , which also helped me to understand the broad spectrum of disabilities , and how each case has to be handled differently , with patience, care , dignity and respect.

Throughout my Employment my main direction has been focused on working with people and I have developed many public relation skills.

My career has been driven by my natural empathy for people in need and my life experiences including being a Fitness Trainer and Office Manager have helped develop excellent customer service skills, including good communication and telecommunication skills. I am highly skilled in responding to client needs and have a comprehensive knowledge of standard practices ,guidelines and boundaries of which I would always work within.

Previous education in conflict and Resolution has given me an insight , appreciation and understanding of diverse and various situations which I have mastered well.

I work well independently and unsupervised and am also an asset in any team environment. I encourage and help others to reach their goals and full potential due to my natural positive attitude.

I know , given an opportunity I would be an asset as a Disability Support worker and any other job that I put my mind and talents to.

I advocate for those that may be less fortunate than myself.

Over the years I have learnt to diffuse situations rather than escalate them and I have learnt to prioritise workloads and situations as to what is important and what is not.

I am Fit ,Healthy , Positive and fun.

I am looking forward to employment in the Disability Sector as I know that I would be a valued member and Enrich the lives that I was priveleged to Support.
