Karenjn

I have lots of experience working as an Administration Assistant since leaving school in the 1980’s, within various companies, as you will notice below in the history employment section of my CV. Although I have not actually been employed as a Receptionist as such, I have helped out as a Receptionist. I always strive to work to tight deadlines and prioritise my workload.

I enjoy working as part of a team whilst using my own initiative. I like to think I have a good professional manner when necessary and with a strong ability to communicate where and when needed within the job specification. I now have experience within the cleaning industry of 4.5 years almost and I have knowledge of CCOSH & health & safety too.

I am a friendly, polite, reliable person with a good sense of humour and can adapt easily within the job role. I dont mind helping others as long as it doesn’t interfere with my own job.
