Summary

I enjoy a challenge and would welcome the opportunity take on new ways of working. I have a good sense of humour and enjoy interacting with the public and I get on well with people. I am conscientious and hard-working, and take great pride in my work. I soon become an integral part of a team and like to help others where I can. Always willing to learn new skills to keep myself up to date and capable of taking on further training.
