About

I am an experienced Mail Sort & DSA staff member with proven ability in management. For 4 of the last 13 years I have worked as a Team Leader at Jubilee Mail Centre, adding value by having a clear understanding of the DSA pipeline. I have built expertise in dealing with external customers (DSA), Royal Mail Staff and Management, and have 13 years' experience in operations.

I have experience of assessing workload vs hourly performance, engaging with Angard Casuals to maintain and improve performance. I am regularly left to run the work area and believe that I have the attributes to progress into a Management role. I have the ability to achieve targets and meeting deadlines, and I have a natural drive to complete any task that I have been assigned to.

I achieve this my managing hourly performance, resource to workload and engage my teams appropriately to achieve maximum performance.
