Summary
Hi I'm Simone,
Full time I currently work in sales as i have for 20 years now. I am a Results-driven Sales Executive with strengths in exceeding sales targets and driving revenue growth. I am very good at building strong client relationships as i feel i have a very bubbly personality and make people feel comfortable when engaging with them. I also have experience working from home and I am very self motivated when it comes to this.
Out of office hours I spend all my time with my fiancée and my dog. We love the Lake District and we spend most weekends paddle boarding on Windermere or long walks in the countryside....Then of course a Sunday Dinner ready for the week ahead.
