SHAUN SANTER

LITTLEHAMPTON,WEST SUSSEX.

Summary

As well as working full-time for over 35 years, I have also organised, hosted and compered many private events including quiz nights, fundraising events, race nights, family fun evenings, children's parties and games evenings.

Good timekeeping, reliability and cleanliness are very important to me, and regard myself as fit, strong and healthy, having only had a handful of sick days in the past 37 years of work.

I am very experienced in dealing with the general public and enjoy face to face communication. As well as a good vocabulary, my mathematical and English written skills are of a high standard.

In my spare time I enjoy attending the gym, running, sport, reading and film.

My wife and I have two grown up sons, so I'm also flexible within the workplace.
