Summary

I am a conscientious, hardworking and mature individual looking for a fresh working challenge to further develop my skills and experience.

My confidence within an accounts department is growing as I combine the knowledge and functions learnt in college with real life experience.

I am an excellent team worker who recognises not only the need for mutual support within the team but also the individual responsibility to complete my own work to a high standard which will in turn reflect well upon the whole team.

I am confident that my transferable skills from previous positions and personable nature will allow me to adapt quickly to a new working environment.
