Summary

While I am not very experienced in management, admin or receptionist positions specifically, I have great communication skills, am good at managing time & people and am eager to learn.

I began a small photography business while being a stay at home mum about a year ago and communicate a lot with people via phone & in person, manage my time & sessions well, am always well prepared, manage my social media accounts, create content to help build & grow my platforms while also staying up to date with advertisement & responding to people or enquiries.

I am an organized and dependable candidate that is able to manage multiple priorities with a positive attitude and a willingness to take on added responsibilities as needed.

I have worked in a variety of different places over the years, a lot within customer service which has helped me build great people skills.

I am happy, bubbly, professional, dependable, reliable & focussed. I work especially well in a space where I feel heard and supported and hope that others would feel the same around me. I am eager to learn, easy to communicate with and can perform tasks as needed, asked or expected.

Although I haven't worked professionally in a few years due to the births of my 2 daughters, I am keen & excited to get back out there and build something of myself. As I am still a full time mum, I primarily am looking for part time or casual employment that is flexible with my situation.

I could be an incredible asset to your team and would love an opportunity to show you what I am capable of.
