“With over 27 years’ experience in the Security Industry I am a committed and hard
working individual who enjoys a challenge. I’m currently employed as a Security
Operations Manager at the iconic venue “The O2 Arena” in London. One of my
greatest achievements was being involved in the smooth running of the venue when
we played host to the Olympics in 2012. In addition to strong communication skills, I
am able to work effectively in a team. I can also demonstrate advanced problem-
solving skills, as well as negotiation and thrive under pressure. My drive and
ambition ensure I am a valuable addition to any company." "An ambitious and hard
working individual, my significant tenures at highly respected companies are
testament to my commitment and ability. I handle multiple tasks on a daily basis
competently, working well under the pressure. Frequent acknowledgment of my
contribution from Senior Management illustrates still further my potential value to
any company."
