I feel my experience in working for a large company for the last 14 years has given me a fantastic platform to build on for the future . I have learnt many different things ranging from the day to day management of looking after what is the largest grounds maintenance rota at Vivid to how to deal with difficult situations and deescalating them and solving any complaints raised . I've had much more interaction with upper management in the past couple of years such as residents who are customers meetings where i am confident to get my point across when its needed .
However i feel i am capable of doing a lot more than what i have done for the last 14 years and i see a great challenge in that.
This was a casual job i did for the duration of the July 2024 Goodwood Festival Of Speed .
My main duty was to stop people crossing the track when cars were going up the famous hill and reopening when the lead Marshall gave the all clear ,maximum attention was required at all times.
It was a fantastic experience meeting so many wonderful people both colleagues and guests and being feet away from some of the most famous cars in the world is a bit special. I was promoted to crossing team leader by the 3rd day which meant a lot as it showed they trusted me to do it after such a short time and everything went perfectly.
