Available to hire
Hi, I’m Van McCourt. I’m a dedicated professional with strong multitasking and customer service skills. I have experience maintaining cleanliness and building customer relationships in various fast-paced environments. I enjoy problem-solving and paying close attention to details, especially when under pressure. My goal is to leverage my talents as a Team Leader in a dynamic and growing organization.
Besides my work experience, I have skills in graphic design and social media marketing. I also run a freelancing company, Nexor Scales, where I help businesses scrape leads and gain insights. Outside of work, I’m active in sports as a New Zealand Canoe Polo Athlete and Premiership Footballer.
