My Summary

My Experience

With over 40 years of diverse professional experience, I bring a unique blend of skills from retail, hospitality, housekeeping, foster care, overseas childcare, foreign student text exchange, administration, and customer service. Together with keeping a family, friends and a love of dancing and my other passion Astrology.

My career has been built on a foundation of reliability, strong leadership, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, making me a highly adaptable and valuable professional.
For more than a decade, I successfully owned and managed Streetbike Ltd, a busy retail business with an in-house café. This role demanded a holistic approach, where I oversaw all aspects of the operation, from budgeting and HR to food safety and staff management. I was responsible for a team of 30, handling everything from training and scheduling to ensuring a seamless customer experience. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of business operations and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively under pressure.
My background also includes extensive experience in administration, where I served as a PA in high-profile sectors like the NHS and legal services. In these roles, I honed my organisational skills, managing complex diaries, handling sensitive information, and providing key administrative support to senior officials. This experience, combined with my proficiency in Microsoft Office, Sage, and CRM systems, ensures I can quickly adapt to new administrative environments and tasks.

I am a hard-working and solution-focused individual with a proven track record of building strong customer relationships and maintaining high standards of quality and hygiene. Whether it was through my overseas property consultancy or my long-standing career in retail, I have always prioritised professional, efficient service. I am now seeking a new opportunity where I can apply my extensive experience and skills in a housekeeping, retail, or administrative role. I am confident that my calm, organised, and professional approach will make a positive contribution to your team.
