About

I'm a hard-working, reliable person who's always enjoyed hands-on work and isn't afraid to get stuck in. I've spent my career in roles where responsibility, teamwork and dealing with people have been important, whether that's managing a busy health club, coaching clients or delivering PE lessons to large groups of children. I'm now looking for a change into a role where I can use my work ethic, learn new skills and be part of a close team.

I'm someone who takes pride in doing a job properly and is always willing to help where needed.
