Jake Bardsley

I am hardworking, reliable always enthusiastic and a good communicator of ideas. I absorb knowledge and I enjoy the challenge of working in a demanding environment, working under pressure whilst and deliver to tight deadlines. I work exceptionally well in a team environment, yet able to prioritise and meet deadlines under complete autonomy.

I am a very outgoing person who has great customer service skills willing to go the extra mile. I am an individual who can be very firm and direct when required. Ultimately, I have a strong interest in public safety which is important to me that the roles I do in my work allows me to make as much of a contribution to this as possible.
