Ellie Spence

I have good communication skills and am an enthusiastic worker. I can work well in a team or on my own. I enjoy meeting new people and feel confident in that situation. I like to try new things because I enjoy a challenge. I enjoy being on the move and keeping busy, whether that be serving customers or completing tasks I have been given. I have experience in working with customers and I enjoy working with the public.
