Summary
I am a motivated and dedicated individual who strives to achieve my best at all times. I am an organised person and my last job has enabled me to work well under pressure and to prioritise tasks and time.
I have worked in sales for eighteen years and one of my main key skills is to really listen to what the client wants but also enhance their product or service of choice which in turn benefits them and the company.
I am able to work independently, as part of team, to make decisions and lead others and to take instruction when necessary.
