I’m currently creating content for the Revolution Bar in Southampton whilst managing their social media page. My role includes posting daily stories on their instagram about upcoming events and deals, creating graphics for their stories and creating modern/trendy content for them to post.
During my summer break during my second year at university, I worked at Camberley Serice Centre. I worked as a car washer and car collector/deliverer, I would drive out to collect customers' cars to bring into the Centre to be serviced MOT, or anything they’ve booked the car in for, I would also clean the inside and outside of the customer's cars before I then take their car back. I had to take on a lot of responsibilities in looking after customers' cars, I also improved my skills of time management to be able to complete all the collections, deliveries, and car cleaning in a day. This proved a lot about my character as they entrusted me with other people’s cars and not damaging them whilst driving them.
