Alexandra Sargisson

Psychology graduate with a 2:1 from the University of Leicester, with strong analytical, communication and organizational skills developed through academic research and professional experience. Experienced in working independently and as part of a team, managing responsibility, building positive relationships and adapting to new and challenging environments. My hospitality experience has developed my ability to work effectively as part of a team, respond proactively to changing situations and maintain attention to detail under pressure.

I am now looking to develop a career in events and bring my organisation, people skills and enthusiasm for delivering positive guest experiences to a Meeting & Events Assistant role.
