Summary
I’m a hardworking and motivated person with a strong interest in practical, hands-on work. While at boarding school in Plymouth, I swam at a national level, which taught me important skills like time management, resilience, and how to stay calm under pressure. Since leaving school, I’ve worked as a Lifeguard and a Care Assistant—both jobs where I’ve had to think fast, stay focused, and help people in challenging situations. I enjoy working in fast-paced environments and always give my best. I’m now looking to start a career where I can keep helping others and grow as a person, which is why I’m really interested in a firefighting apprenticeship.
