PROFILE

Armed with strong and effective communication skills, I am able to organise and

prioritise effectively to proactively build a workable business structure whilst

working within the framework and objectives of any company or organisation. I

do have an entrepreneurial mindset which makes me very pro-active with a

strong work drive. I have a keen business mind so I believe time spent working

efficiently and effectively is pivotal and punctuality is significant within a working

environment and I am able to develop daily tasks to optimise productivity as well

as innovate and make things happen to meet customer satisfaction

requirements. I do have excellent interpersonal skills; I am emotionally mature,

confident, productive, reliable, conscientious, punctual, flexible, professional and

a team player.

I have spent a large part of my working life in self employment and have

experienced a variety of administrate roles while temping for agencies and

gained ample experience within the administration sector of the business; I am

very versed with the principles of business administration and would be well

suited within a company/organisation with a culture that embraces diversity and

thrives with change and a team which focuses on meeting the objectives of the

business and are always establishing standards of performance that are

constantly being met and improving at all times. It is important when working

within the organization that each employee knows where they are going and how

they’re supposed to get there. It is said that a company with great communication

is a great company with a clear direction and takes responsibility for making

ongoing process improvements and a team is a group of people united by a

common business goal, committed to achieving the companies’ objectives and

shares the company values.

Quote; Mark Zuckerberg CEO Facebook

“The reason why we’ve built a company is because I think a company is by

far the best way to get the best people together and align their incentives

around doing something great.” (The video)

Teams work together on all work related projects and help where necessary. It

doesn’t matter who gets credit for what because you accomplish everything

together. I am looking for a position which offers a realistic opportunity and the

capabilities of developing within the role.
