CV

A 2:1 Hons BSc took me into the graduate training programme with RHM Foodservices. I stayed with them for nearly 4 years working up to a Department Manager with 54 staff. I then swapped to Hazlewoods Foods as Bakery Manager, after just 12 months I was hand picked to help open and run a brand new ready meals factory. (I was 26 years old). I so much enjoyed working with people and their problems that I changed career direction and went into the NHS, in a personnel department. I was also responsible for programming and maintaining the personnel database. I began studying for an IPD post graduate certificate. Dis-illusioned with my NHS role I began my career in Sales. For the last ten years I have worked my way up to UK Sales Manager, through Key Account roles and New Business Development. I have an excellent and proven track record. I sell into the clinical, industrial and food industries. In my spare time I write web sites, ride a huge motorbike and I am a Reiki Master. I am an excellent relationship builder, problem solver and strategic thinker. I enjoy sales, training and design (be it training courses, publications or websites).
