Retail / Sales Assistant
About

I am enthusiastic, personable with a bright disposition, have good sense of humour and am hard working. I am keen to learn, happy working within a team and able to take instructions however also capable of working on my own initiative. I finished my studies at The Sixth Form College in Colchester in June 2023 after completing my A levels, and am currently attending the University of the Arts London at London College of Fashion studying Fashion Buying and Merchandising. Despite still being in education, I am looking for a steady working position as my timetable can allow some flexibility during the week and commitment to weekend work. I have a keen interest in fashion, as highlighted in my degree choice, and am hoping to pursue a successful career in the fashion industry in the future.
