Background: (Personal)
I am 19 years old, a creative and a keen worker. My hardwork ethic means I’m a reliable
worker who is punctual and strives to arrive on time in a presentable manner.
Creative, Organised and Focused are all words that would describe myself best as the ability
to work in a team is one that I practice regularly; either in a leadership role or being given
instructions as part of a team. I regard myself as a flexible individual who is a problem solver
and can think on my feet and complete tasks to the best of my ability whilst on being quite
organised, punctual and confident in a working environment and work best interacting with
customers and clients closely. A strong confidence allows me to approach customers/clients
appropriately and professionally and would find a position to personally interact enjoyable.
I regard myself as a very creative person and thoroughly enjoy putting ideas into action and
seeing the outcome, whether it be success or failure. My failures in the things I do are an
opportunity to move forward and strive to correct errors from previous attempts.
My interests include music and performing in bands as a singer whilst having performed at
many venues in the North Yorkshire area including events in the Royal Hall in Harrogate and
Willowman Festival. I believe a role where I would interact with people would be the best use
of my abilities as my confidence in speaking with people is my strongest characteristic.
Whilst also performing in bands, I also run our band’s social media pages on which posts are
regular to ensure that we keep our audience involved. This is a task which I find essential to
the infrastructure of the band as the marketisation is half of the reason that we have gained
a high following in our area.
Professional
Summary
February 2018- February
2019
Associate
The Crown Inn Wetherspoons
Knaresborough
For the past year, I was an associate for JD Wetherspoons in Knaresborough. The venue was
very popular at all times of the week which initially made the drastic change from my previous
roles challenging, however I quickly adapted to the situation and became a strong member of
the team. My job included early mornings and very late nights however my commitment to this
role and to customer service kept my dedication for this job high.
October 2019- January 2018 (Christmas Temp)

2. Associate
Tk Maxx/ Homesense
Knaresborough
Over the 2017 Christmas period, I worked as an associate for TK Maxx/ Homesense. My role
included general maintenance of the shop and also arranging and processing new stock to
the shop floor. I enjoyed this position as it gave me a good experience and knowledge of retail
and also gave me a good experience of working as part of a larger team than I previously
have. I was contracted only for the Christmas period which was an extremely busy time for
the shop
.
August 2016- February 2017
Barista
Café Di Lucca
Knaresborough
Barista in a popular café in the centre of Knaresborough. Like my previous roles, I am best
suited to jobs in which I can interact with customers/clients and make their experience
enjoyable. I find that these part time roles lack the creativity that I would like to bring to a full
time role.
August 2014- October 2017
Bar Tender/Front of House
Bay Horse Inn
Goldsborough
I have worked at a small public house/bed and breakfast called The Bay Horse Inn since
August 2014 where I have progressed through 3 job titles since starting there including:
kitchen hand, waiter/front of house and bar staff. During this role I have had a significant
amount of experience speaking with business stakeholders and interacting with customers.
Problem resolution and the ability to work on my feet are put to the test. My ability to handle
instructions and solve problems or issues that arose is one that I am proud of and will happily
Activities:
For several years, I have worked with many events company’s which organise festivals and
events around the country. The most recent event was The NGG festival in Derby in which I
helped co-ordinate an arts tent which was a very popular attraction. From a young age I
worked with the events company Animamudi organising children’s events at places such as
Newby Hall which were run on a regular basis. This, and my experience from planning and
performing events with various musical acts around the country, has given me knowledge for
event co-ordinating and organisation.
