Summary

I am a 37 year old woman with 17 years’ work experience. I have 10 years administration experience which includes 7 years Personal Assistant to a Director.

I worked for Boxer Superstores from 2017 to 2021. During 2018 I had a complicated medical procedure which resulted in a medical Roux en Y Gastric Bypass being done. This operation was successful and full healing has taken place.

I am a team player and can multitask with various tasks at hand. I am a good listener and enjoy working in a people’s environment. I am also able to work independently. I pride myself in honesty and integrity.
