Christon John-Ahye

I am a friendly, reliable and hardworking MEng Chemical Engineering student at the University of Surrey, seeking summer work in a practical, fast-paced role. I have experience in customer-facing retail, stock handling, packaging and laboratory-based product work, which has helped me develop strong attention to detail, organisation and the ability to work calmly under pressure.

At Daniel

Field, I supported the testing, handling and packaging of hair dye products, ensuring materials and finished items were managed carefully, safely and accurately. At JD Sports, I gained experience assisting customers, restocking shelves, handling stock and working efficiently as part of a team. Outside of work, I have developed strong teamwork, discipline and leadership through semi-professional football, university football captaincy, the Duke of Edinburgh Award, volunteering and school leadership roles.

I am quick to learn, physically active, open to feedback and willing to support wherever needed.
