Summary
I believe I am a strong and well suited candidate with a good understanding and high level of experience in inventory management and logistics (warehouse). Throughout my years of working as a warehouse worker my key skills I've developed are teamwork, time management, commitment, and problem solving. Currently I am studying full time in university as a undergraduate student, having just started my second year in a sport and exercise science level 5 course. I'm currently also working part time at Muller Milk and Ingredients factory based in Willenhall, which I work night shifts. However, I am currently searching for any internships or placements in the sports sector to gain valuable experience to help me in the future but also within my course, which I aim to reach up to 60 hours minimum.
