While working in this job i would be on the go all of the time, whether that be sending e-mails, making/ taking phone calls and dealing with clients. The versatility and heavy work load of this job allowed me to become a more organised and diverse worker which is very important for me to adapt to any working environment in the future.

Parcel Sorter/Warehouse Operative

UPS
Stanford-le-Hope
02.2021 - 05.2021

While working at this job I sorted parcels that we received for distribution and sorted them by location to be sent out on the same day. I learned a lot of organisational skills when sorting the parcels into their specific categories. I was the only employee in this role so it demanded a lot of responsibility. Working independently benefited me long term as I adapted to working in an environment with and without others.

Whilst working at Roomes I learned a lot about working life, this was my first ever job in retail and it taught me a lot about time management, work ethic and responsibility. When I joined I took over the menswear department in the store and had to oversee multiple parts of the department such as, the till, stockroom, fitting room, clothes displays and clothes organisation. I was very fast to pick up my role and understand fully all tasks that needed to be done.
