Summary

For the past 20 years I have been a mother to 3 wonderful boys and raising them has been my main focus. They are Now grown and have their own successful lives. I am ready to return to work and focus on a career for myself.

before I had children I worked for a number of years as both a dental nurse and receptionist. In the years that followed I have worked briefly in sales roles and accounts to supplement the family income when needed.

i consider myself to be a dependable reliable punctual and organised person. I like people and have good communication skills. In my previous job roles I have worked hard at completing tasks efficiently whilst working alongside other team members to make the working day successful.
