Summary

University of Canterbury graduate with 5+ years of retail experience and a love for team environments in and out of the workplace. I enjoy a fast-paced challenge with a rewarding end goal that benefits not only me but others around me. New World has given me a great grounding and understanding of working life, however, I feel like my skills and attributes could be transferred into other industries where I can utilise my degree.

My role at Daking was a week-long work experience, during which I paired myself with a different team member each day to gather insight into their role and how they all correlate and match another role to create a successful business internally and externally.
  • Invoicing, gathering insight into the invoicing requirements, learning the ropes of the financial system used at Daking, how to document, report, and file invoices.
  • Operations, learned what it takes to become a successful operations manager from having a bill of materials for every product to ensure correct and timely ordering of parts and whether the likes of Air freight vs Sea freight would be suitable or even to simple internal team management such as making sure storeroom team is getting parts out to local companies on time.
