KATHRYN BRAUN

Elwood,VIC

Summary

I am 35 and a Melbourne local.

With years of experience in cafes and caring positions I have developed highly intuitive interpersonal skills.

Reliable and friendly hospitality worker that turned to the healthcare sector, now I’m ready for my ‘forever’ role. I’m an highly efficient multitasker with a knack for anticipating needs. I’m seeking employment that is based close to home, mostly during school hours, in a face to face environment. Seasoned individual with demonstrated track record of providing excellent customer service, it’s always my goal to create a positive experience for our customers or clients! I am now a mother which has only added to my multi tasking fast learner capabilities. I am ready to work and keen to up skill if needed and hope to hear from you soon!
