Summary

I'm a dedicated and customer-focused professional with solid experience in customer service, operations, and sales in the retail industry. I'm now looking for a new opportunity in 2024 where I can use my skills to help a team succeed. I've worked at BP and Countdown Church Corner, where I gained valuable experience in dealing with people, working under pressure, and keeping things running smoothly. I’m reliable, organised, and enjoy working with others to get the job done. I’m also confident working on my own, handling tasks accurately and on time. I'm ready to bring my strong work ethic, time management, and customer service skills to a new role where I can grow and contribute to a positive team environment.
