Summary

I am a hard working and committed individual, looking for summer work over the period of my holidays from university. I am willing to learn new skills while utilising ones I have already developed through my work as a waitress last summer, and my ongoing need to balance work and sporting commitments at university.


I have excellent time management skills and I am a team player, enjoying the challenge of working as a group to deliver a good customer experience. I am friendly and enthusiastic, and will always ask for clarification when faced with unfamiliar situations. I would welcome the opportunity to gain new and valuable experience in the hospitality and/or retail settings.
