Summary

Hi Team, HR, Manager and Owner, I'm applying for this position because I believe it sits well, with other positions I have situated myself with for the years.

I little about me; I'm 41 years young and have 3 very accomplished children. In the positions I've upheld the last couple of years due to raising kids and having a Husband who has been servicing our country in the RAN and had since discharges and is now doing FIFO. Our children rage from 23 years - 17 years of age years of age. I current reside in North Lakes with my husband and 2 of my 3 children. During the last couple of years, I have notice I have wanted more for myself. I however didn't think it would be as hard as it has become, and I guess age maybe a factor. I don't need a job. I WANT a job.

I realised I need to do something to stay relevant in the work force. I have been doing Temp work for the past 8 years. Now it's time for me to start getting a bit of my own like back and getting a full-time job.

I am professional with a friendly demeanour and strong problem-solving skills, honed at a lot of the position I have taken on. I try to provide an enhance customer satisfaction through effective communication and attention to detail. Adaptable and dependable, I excel in fast-paced environments, consistently achieving high-quality results while also not being to ashamed to ask for help if needed.

I am pursuing a full-time or permanent part time role that presents professional challenges and shows interpersonal skills, that could benefit your business.

I know I'm a very organized and dependable candidate for the position you are advertising. I'm willing to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.

After raising 3 kids consistently on my own. I feel it's time for me to get back to being me "Bec" and not "Mum" or "Mrs Macca".

I do hope you at least consider me for and interview, as I feel like I have put in the hard years, of, work, wife and Mum.

Kind regards,

Bec McNamara
