Working in an environment around young children has allowed my knowledge on all cleaning products and equipment to develop greatly. I am fully aware on what exact products I need to be using for different jobs, along with correctly storing them alway every time. I am required to work at a fast pace, yet completing every job to a high standard, whilst keeping all in use equipment out of reach of children.

I have also trained up new staff when needed.

My main jobs are to fully disinfect all surfaces, hoover and mop all offices, PE/food halls, staff room, kitchen, toilets, and the main reception area. I feel highly honoured to have been chosen to clean this run as it's the main entrance that all parents, visitors and staff see the most, which is why I keep my standards exceptionally high! I also use buffing machines on large wooden floors, and clean all my glass areas.

• Working as a cleaner for Buzz bingo requires great communication skills as you're working around customers and great time management as many of jobs need to be completed before opening and to ensure everything is completed before the shift ends.
• My main jobs are to unlock the whole building whilst checking all alarms are working, empty and re-bag all the bins, fully disinfect all tables and chairs, vacuum, clean all toilets/sinks, tidy all areas in the smoking courtyard, mop all hard surfaced floors and keep on top of stock, whether that be ordering or organising it away.

Working in a restaurant has gained me so much confidence when communicating with customers, whether that is taking orders, answering takeaway calls, welcoming and seating guests, being greatly apologetic when things go wrong, answering customer questions on the spot about different food allergies, specials on the menu, and explaining different deals.

My jobs as a waitress required me to work at a fast pace, especially in school/bank holidays when the restaurant was much busier. I made sure all tables were deep cleaned before and after use. I made sure to do check ins throughout every customers visit to ensure their time with us was excellent. I took both card and cash payments whilst asking for feedback on their visit.
