Available to hire
As a dedicated professional I bring a strong foundation in administrative work and a commitment to making a positive impact. My experience has equipped me with meticulous organisational and communication skills, with a natural attention to detail.
Plus my voluntary work has broadened my perspective, from sorting clothes and books for charities to photographing goods for sale online. By supporting local health awareness events and hosting a weekly hospital radio show I demonstrated a community-oriented mind-set. I am keen to contribute to an organisation that values efficiency and community values.
