Summary

I am a hard-working, organised, well-presented and professional person with experience working within a team but also individually. I have an enthusiastic approach to the work environment, always keen to learn new skills and am calm under pressure. Having gained experience in roles where organisation and administrative tasks have made up the majority of my day I have learnt to very effectively manage my time. I am skilled in self managing (for example when working from home/remotely) but also do well taking direction when needed.
