Amanda Brown

I am a professional administrator with experience within sectors such as the leisure home industry through to construction and civil engineering. With effective communication skills I am able to work in tandem with other departments but also as effective when given responsibility to single projects. My skillset lies within administration and all things clerical, be they technical or travel arranging.

I am seeking to utilise these skills and my experience for a company who not only recognises productive skills but aims to retain to the benefit of their success.
