Summary

To Whom it May Concern, My experience is varied with involvement in both manufacturing and distribution together with duties pertaining to hygiene, health and safety and quality control, from supervising and managing my own business to chocolates to fishing and cleaning and Dairy industry. As I had opportunities to further my qualifications, experience and understanding of the food industry I found I enjoyed the food industry on a commercial basis. The experiences I have had have provided me with insight to the food industry on a larger scale. Following this I purchased a cleaning franchise with primary involvement in managing the financial side of the business such as accounts, wages and human resources and cleaning with employees and business partner around my children and my current place of work in the dairy industry. In 2014 I completed a haccp refresher course and also a Health and Safety course 1 in 2015 I gained more valuable knowledge from and really enjoy putting into practice as a health and safety representative at Synlait and Pure Nutrition and Westland Dairy. Implementing documents, Investigations, In 2014 I completed a haccp refresher course and also a Health and Safety course 1 in 2015. I am self motivated and reliable. I enjoy learning new skills and putting them into practice. I love a challenge and I am outgoing. On weekends and holidays I do DIY projects including painting and renovating houses, currently renovating a hut in Herbertville, I enjoy projects and have been doing this in my spare time for 24 years. I have so much knowledge to share and so much to contribute.

Yours Sincerely Olena Robinson
