Summary

I am hard working, organised and dependable. I have had several customer facing roles including working at Aldwick Estate and vineyard. Before moving to Bristol I was a manager of a Nursery school where I ran a small team of staff and communicated face to face with parents on a daily basis.

I have also recently worked at the Rec Bar in Wrington. This role included serving drinks in a busy local environment. Being friendly and talking to customers was an important part of the role.
