Summary

I believe I would be a great candidate for this position as I am experienced in retail sector with focus on customer service, stock management and quality control. My skills and experience have taught and prepared me to ensure the timely and smooth running of operations, thanks to keen attention to detail, organisational skills and experience in warehouses as well as the shop floor. I am willing to take on challenging new roles harnessing and learning new skills wherever I can. In any position I am always driven to deliver high-quality and consistent results.

Recently I have relocated from the south east to the north east, after visiting over the last two years, falling in love with the city and meeting my partner here. This move has been a long term goal of mine and I have worked the last three years to achieve this for myself. Now that I am settled I am excited to apply for this new opportunity here. My new goal is to find a career in which I can enjoy, learn and progress within over time.

I look forward to hearing back from you and discussing this great opportunity further.
