Summary
I have previously been employed at a number of positions. I have always been a consistent worker and stick to deadlines and make sure I meet any targets that need to be met. I am a quick learner and I am very hands on when it comes to practical roles. I have experience in the office environment, I am comfortable having my own desk, using telephones and other office features. I am good at greeting customers/service users and offering help advice. I have strong IT skills including advanced use of Ms office and I am an excellent communicator. I am well organised, confident and a people person and I am always smartly presented. I am good at working under pressure and using my own initiative. I have recently been employing my own skills to start a project of my own from home and I am near the final stages. At this time of my career I am currently looking for work which will be suited to my expertise or a brand new challenge. I have a full UK driving licence.
