Summary

With extensive experience across multiple industries, and primarily in a hospital/healthcare setting, I am confident in my ability to be a valuable asset to any team with a sales/revenue growth focus. My communication skills, both written and verbal, are exemplary, and I approach challenges with enthusiasm and a touch of humour. I am adept at organising, efficient with my time, and quick to grasp new technical information. I relish challenges and am committed to putting in the effort required to achieve results for burgeoning businesses. My involvement with event management and product/team launches has honed my interpersonal skills, which are pivotal in managing the diverse customer personalities I come across. I am both resilient and adaptable, always aiming for expertise in my field. Moreover, I have found that many skills from my previous roles seamlessly transition, facilitating a smooth integration within a new team.
