After completing my Level 3 extended diploma as a Fashion Retail student at the Fashion Retail Academy in London , I decided to take the next step in furthering my knowledge and testing more of my skills . I am now currently at at Fashion Uni in London completing modules for fashion communications and marketing . During my time studying and my experience in industry projects, I have developed excellent problem solving techniques which have helped when working under pressure . Alongside this I have confidence in working well as a team and am looking for a new opportunity where i can use my initiative ideas combined with team work to achieve the best results whilst expanding and learning new skills .
Most recent role working as a Primark Retail Assistant, from this I have built on working under pressure when the store is busy along with answering customers queries and questions whilst keeping my section of the store clean and orderly . I have experience with working at tills , serving customers in a friendly manner whilst helping with returns etc . What I have most enjoyed is how my confidence has built through my time at Primark and the skills I have learnt which I would love to further into another role in retail .
From my previous work experience at Jaeger in the M&S Oxford street office , I gained experience with the buying , marketing and visual merchandising teams .This has helped me get an insight into how to organise work loads when taking ownership of tasks and also ways to express your opinions in meetings when mixing the creative and business sides together .
During my experience at Squirrels Heath Primary School , I was able to develop my skill of communicating with children in a friendly manner, I was also able to lead focus groups with SEN children. Alongside dealing with admin work which included tasks such as organising paperwork and filing documents
