Summary
I am an enthusiastic climber who is keen to guide and support customers in their outdoor activities. Having enjoyed and diligently attended weekly NICAS (National Indoor Climbing Award Scheme) sessions at Green Spider Climbing Centre, Hereford for over 6 years, working towards NICAS Level 5. I have learnt to be a reliable and a safety conscious climbing partner and to establish trust with my climbing partnerships/teams whilst having a great time. I can bring all of this experience to the position of a Customer Activity Assistant which would enable me to foster positive experiences for participants in their Go Ape adventures.
Both when climbing and in my wider experience of employment I work well in teams and also I am happy working alone to ensure that any job is completed satisfactorily and that customers are satisfied and happy.
