William Elliott

Kellyville,NSW

Summary

My name is William Elliott and I am currently studying a Bachelor of Media and Communications at Macquarie University. Despite being a full-time student, I have been working since the age of 15, therefore I believe I have a great deal to offer to the workplace.


I am a hardworking employee effective at multitasking to satisfy others and achieve work targets in fast-paced environments. Knowledgeable about processing payments, using Point-of-sale systems and serving alcohol in a responsible way.


More recently, I have worked as a Human Resources Assistant, gathering a strong knowledge of officer administration and HR operations. In this role, I became proficient in building lasting relationships with employees and clients alike to further company goals.


I have completed my Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award, which involves volunteer service, survival and physical requirements and other skill-based activities. In addition to this, I was a valuable team member to the Oakhill College debating team as well as representing the school in Rugby Union.


I have a great work ethic and a positive attitude. I am polite and am very passionate about customer service, however I am always happy to perform any physical labour required.
