Summary

Since graduating university I've held a wide variety of jobs to gain experience and an insight into different industries. During all these experiences I gained valuable skills with customer satisfaction, communication and time management, which will well equip me for my future career. Based on these experiences I am very eager to get in to the sales and marketing sector and further improve my skills and knowledge of this area.

I am looking for jobs in the London area with the plan of relocating there.
