Summary
I am 16 years old, looking for part time work to work around my sixth-form studies. I have just finished my GCSE’s so I’m available all summer until September. I am planning to study sports and regularly go to the gym so I am able to keep up with a fast paced environment. My time at cadets has given me the ability to use my initiative and work as a team.
