Summary

Dedicated and enthusiastic professional with a proven track record of four years of volunteering experience at Yaxley Library. During this time, I honed strong communication skills and cultivated positive relationships with patrons of all ages. With a deep-rooted passion for literature, it was a privilege to have played a role in fostering a love of reading, particularly among young individuals, both within the library and as a reading mentor during sixth form studies. Additionally, my role as the elected subject ambassador for History allowed me to excel in creating engaging promotional displays and representing the department at open evenings. Drawing from experiences in library settings and customer-centric environments allows the ability to bring these skills and enthusiasm to the position applied for.
