I pride my-self on my work ethic, attention to detail and organisational skills, I feel this is essential for this role because it enables me to adapt to and maximize my effectiveness in any role or position. I feel one of my positives is my wide range of life skills which is an advantage in any role enabling me to have transferrable skills in almost every situation I am placed in allowing me to work efficiently and use my initiative when it comes to problem solving. I feel exceptionally comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously with different outcomes and deadlines and I have developed the skills necessary in order to meet them.

I would describe my-self as a people person and I relish the challenges of working in a team with a wide range of people from different backgrounds.
I have also developed a strong focus on delivering highly accurate research (to GCLP) to strict timetables whilst working as a research assistant for Dr Richard Bingham at the
Whilst working as a research assistant I became highly competent at working to efficiently, accurately and precisely to various protocols and standard operating procedures. As part of the project I was required to produce many batches of e.coli initially using culture dishes, store them, and maintaining them whilst using aseptic technique. After experiments were completed I was required to autoclave glassware and safely dispose of disposables. I would feel confident doing that again. I was also required to liaise with various departments and in order to predict and maintain stock levels of many consumables within the micro-biology lab. Throughout the project I was also required to keep a large amount of highly detailed notes and other paperwork.
As a senior shift manager and training officer health and safety and equipment maintenance was one of my primary day-to-day tasks. Daily records needed to be kept and problems reported immediately. I feel the skills that I developed there would be easily transferrable to other positions.
