Kitty Murdoch
Clevedon
Summary
This winter, I worked as a chalet host, welcoming guests, serving food, and helping keep things running smoothly day to day. It gave me valuable experience in hospitality and working closely with people. Before that, I graduated from Newcastle University with a degree in International Relations and during my time there, I also passed the Army Officer Selection Board. I plan to begin officer training at Sandhurst in the next couple of years. For now, I’m enjoying being back home in Clevedon and would love the chance to be part of a friendly local team. I’m hardworking, confident with people, and keen to build on my experience in customer service.
