Cardlin Salmon

I am a friendly and open minded individual with a passion for retail and business. My studies and previous work experience have all been within this field, and I am currently looking to progress my career in a more challenging role. I have excellent communication skills which have enabled me to build strong relationships with both colleagues and customers.

I have previously worked both on my own and in groups with very successful outcomes and have the excellent ability to take others' opinions and thoughts into consideration when working as part of a team.
