Summary

With a background in project management, data analysis and administration, I believe my skills and experience make me an ideal candidate. I have five years of experience working in technical administration roles. During this time, I have developed a wide range of administrative skills, from technical and geographical data entry and analysis to customer service and project management. My strengths lie in my ability to multitask efficiently, manage time effectively and problem solve quickly. Furthermore, I have excellent communication skills which allow me to work with both internal and external stakeholders. In addition, I can work autonomously or as part of a team depending on the situation's requirements.
