Ollie English
Brighton
Summary
I am a professional, presentable, and confident 20-year-old who has studied Mathematics, Economics, and Business at A-level. I am in my second year at Bristol Business School studying Accounting and Business Management.
I am driven, reliable, and diligent, with an unyielding dedication to excellence. I possess a natural motivation and robust work ethic, instilled in me from a young age whilst watching my father set up his own successful business.
I decided to study Accounting and Business Management at Bristol to acquire valuable skills and experience that will help me succeed in either the finance or business sector.
I have chosen my modules with this in mind. This year I will take modules such as Corporate Finance, so I can learn about investment appraisal and sourcing finance. Management Accounting and Decision Making will help develop my costing techniques and teach me methods to manage risk. Financial Accounting will improve my understanding of financial statements and data.
