About

I am a dedicated and driven professional currently working as a Shift Leader at Tesco, enrolled in the Options Development Scheme and progressing towards a Team Manager position. I thrive in the fast-paced world of retail, where every day brings new challenges and opportunities to lead, problem-solve, and deliver results. I hold a BSc in Accounting and Business from the University of Exeter, where I gained a strong foundation in financial management, organisational behaviour, and data-driven decision-making. These skills have strengthened my ability to manage resources effectively, support business goals, and make confident operational decisions. Known for my resilience and proactive approach, I take pride in leading by example and supporting my team to perform at their best. I believe in approachable, hands-on leadership — providing constructive feedback, recognising strengths, and helping colleagues grow in their roles. As I continue to advance in my career, I’m focused on building strong teams, driving operational excellence, and creating a positive, high-performing workplace culture that delivers outstanding results for both colleagues and customers.
