Employment History

McDonald’s – 2015 – Present

My duties in McDonald’s involve me working in different environments which I can adapt to easily. Communication skills are used successfully to interact with customers and to interact with my team to ensure that things run smoothly on shift. Throughout my time here I have shown the abilities needed to progress within the company and became an Area Leader earlier than expected. With this role I am giving leadership opportunities and this helps me become more confident and gives me responsibility when on shift to identify and tackle problems. Cash handling is also included which involves cashing up tills, doing bank deposit and being in charge of the safe with large amounts of cash, As an area leader our focus is also on how to maximise sales and let staff work towards targets.

Co-Operative Group (2019-August 2019)

Within applying for this role, I was offered a better position as management, thus role has given me additional knowledge and experience on a variety of business/finance aspects. This role sees me take responsibility on a shift as the only manager available, where I need to set and oversee tasks that have been set for the customer assistants. Furthermore, this role also allows me to find the logics and reasoning behind the business techniques, how to improve economic growth and the legal side to a company’s policy.

Marks & Spencer’s – 2017 – 2019 ( August 2019- Present)

In this role I have worked within two departments; Store operations which seen me take control of deliveries, fix tills and make sure everything behind the shop floor ran smoothly so the sales floor were at ease. I then moved to foods which seen me interact with a variety of customers, cash handling and adapt to different situations.
