What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my skills in communication and leadership while providing opportunities for growth and learning.

I am a highly motivated and enthusiastic individual, eager to learn new skills and contribute positively to any team. My experience as a volunteer first aider has honed my communication skills, allowing me to interact effectively with colleagues and patients in challenging situations. I pride myself on being trustworthy, honest, and hardworking, qualities that I believe are essential in any professional setting.

Throughout my career, I have developed strong leadership and organizational skills, particularly in my role as a Wildlife Care Assistant at Hessilhead Wildlife Rescue Centre. Here, I managed first aid teams and ensured that all operations ran smoothly. My resilience and ability to work under pressure have been key to my success in various roles, from administrative positions to hands-on care in veterinary settings.

With a solid foundation in both customer service and wildlife care, I am looking to leverage my skills in a new role that allows me to continue growing professionally while making a meaningful impact.
