Summary

I am a respectful young adult with a well-mannered attitude. I am trustworthy, adaptable to change and hardworking. I am driven to succeed in life and determined to do the best to my ability.


I completed a Level 2 Business Administration course whilst undertaking a 2 day per week placement at Somerset Care with the Learning and Development team. Within my placement I learnt that I am a good listener and able to communicate well with a group and on an individual level. I learn quickly and take direction well, can self-motivate and am organised. I wish to progress my career within business management and to learn and grow to my full potential.
