About
I am a hardworking, friendly, approachable person. I regard myself as a model professional, which has been demonstrated with the responsibility of training new staff when they have joined teams that I have been working for. I am able to adapt to my working environment and think on my feet, as skill that is necessary in a school-working environment as every day is different.
I am also able to be flexible with working patterns. I am naturally self-motivated due to being self-employed for several years and this work ethic means that I don't shy away from hard work. I have a full understanding of the importance of working safely and how to operate as part of team.
Outside of the working environments I am also interested in football and have played for a number of years across different leagues. This love of sport has also led me to gain an FA coaching certificate to then meant I was able to volunteer to train several youth teams for the Sunday leagues, while communication under pressure is key. I am also a keen angler experiencing fresh water and saltwater fishing in the UK and abroad.
