Alfie McDermott

I pride myself in engaging with customers, having a good sense of humour but being able to focus on the task in hand, adapting to a range of environments, with a proven ability to support management through efficient paperwork handling and task completion. Demonstrating strong communication skills by entering homes to quote and price jobs, ensuring customer satisfaction. I'm continuously seeking methods to enhance task execution and assist colleagues in day-to-day situations.

Since the age of 11, I have set my own alarms in the mornings, checked bus times daily to get the bus to school on time and efficiently. I continue to do so throughout my time in college.

Being the eldest sibling to 5 brothers creates daily challenges that I put myself forward to help with any household tasks and pride myself in achieving as much as possible to maintain an enjoyable environment and smooth-running of the house. This also includes looking after household pets. I pride myself in being presentable and keeping my personal space a clean and calm environment. I like to cook and maintain a pretty strict diet as I have a strong love for the gym which I dedicate myself to attend to up to 5 times a week.

• In 2018, I ran/walked a 10km charity race at Goodwood, raising funds for Fishbourne Primary School by running a raffle and receiving donations which I completed and hosted a live stream for the prizes of the raffle. I raised £1170 for my school which was partially used for a running track around the school field to provide children with their daily mile which was decided together with the Headteacher. The Observer Newspaper visited the school where I was photographed presenting the school with a cheque. For this accomplishment, I was invited to receive a nomination for a Mini Heroes award at a ceremony with Fred Dinenage where I won in my category.
