Summary

Hard working and quick learning individual with a keen eye for detail.

After working in hospitality for many years I have gained a great skill level for customer communication, problem solving and team management. With my experience in construction I have also learnt to enjoy some of the "dirty work" involved with jobs.

I work extremely well in team environments due to my past work experience, as well as my participation in team sports from the age of 5.

I enjoy working with new people and I get on with everyone I have worked with in the past.

Currently I am seeking a job which I can start immediately or as soon as suited. I am available full time, Monday-Sunday until the 19th of January. After that I will be available part time on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays while occasionally being able to fill in during the week if needed.
