Pacey Perkins

I am a trustworthy, honest, hardworking and friendly individual seeking a role or internship in event management or hospitality, where I can apply my practical experience and strong people skills. I grew up working in my family's florist and event business and have extensive hands-on experience with event organisation, customer service and food preparation. I also work well both independently and as part of a team, maintaining a positive attitude towards colleagues and tasks.

In addition to my event background, I previously studied ICT Computing (hardware and software) at Oldham College, gaining a solid foundation of skills, knowledge and practical experience. I am therefore also open to exploring roles within computing, software or ICT.
