Esme Tresidder

I am a friendly, hardworking, and detail-focused employee with eight years of experience in administration roles. I really enjoy working in a team and interacting with different people as part of my job – I have learned that my strength lies in combining human interaction with making processes run smoothly and efficiently. Most recently, this passion for dealing with people has led me to roles in hospitality, but I’m looking to return to outward-facing administration in a more senior role based on my years of experience.
