Summary

I am a hardworking and reliable individual with a strong background in customer service, retail, warehouse, and support roles. Over the years, I’ve developed excellent transferable skills that are well-suited to administrative work, including handling paperwork, maintaining accurate records, organising stock, and supporting team operations. I’m confident using basic IT systems and always maintain a professional approach in fast-paced or busy environments. I’m now looking for an opportunity to move into an administrative role where I can continue learning, use my existing skills, and contribute to a professional team.
