PERSONAL PROFILE
I completed my honors degree in quantity surveying at Liverpool John Moore’s back in 2004. It was
completed part time whilst working full time so I appreciate the nature of hard work.
The skills I have developed over this period cover a number of areas as I have had to communicate with
a varied range of people through working in a management environment. I am no stranger to flexible
working hours and my roles have included the necessity to travel all over the UK.
I feel I am an effective communicator having had to engage with people at all levels of professional
hierarchy. I believe I have an approachable and friendly persona and value my ability to develop
relationships and get on with all types of people.
I have experience in leading teams and working in groups of people as well as working independently
and have been responsible for making pivotal decisions without further authorisation.
I am confident about my time management skills having had to run projects to deadlines and also
having had to take on various roles within this to ensure the correct and timely outcome. This
sometimes involves challenging different perspectives and making decisions that can change the format
of events. I consider myself an effective communicator on paper having had to comprise reports and
minutes of meetings etc. I have a good understanding of health and safety in general having been the
responsible officer and a named first aider in a previous role.
I also have excellent computer skills having completed several i.t. modules at university including
designing web sites and creating and developing databases.
