LISA SMITH
Horncastle,Lincolnshire
Summary
I have worked mainly in the care/healthcare system since I was 16 years old. I had a career break in 2014 to look after our two lovely daughters. As they have became older I felt it good to return to the work place.
I returned to healthcare as this was familiar but I now wish to branch out and have a career change. My appetite has been wetted by helping my husband with the administration of his property business.
I love working with people and feel I engage and connect well with people. I have always worked well in a team setting and I feel a happy smiling face is a positive attribute.
