Excellent Opportunity

I am a very full of life person and have great satisfaction going to work each morning and see each day as another day to learn something new and make someone smile. I am a strong team player and always look for something to do during the day if work is quite, repacking cupboards,checking and tiding up files ect. I enjoy liaising with clients and suppliers. Working with figures and learning new stuff. The most challenging aspect is I will not allow myself to fail or give up and am very determined to get something right. I believe life is a blessing and we should live each day to the fullest. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Kindest Regards Taressa Hall Taressa

Pros: Dedicated, hard working and loyal.
