Summary

I have been living in America for the last 4 years working as a fully qualified football
coach and studying for a Masters degree. As a football coach I was responsible for
managing a number of junior teams with duties including organising practical
sessions, ensuring health, safety and welfare of participants, coaching and

In the last 18 months I have been a full time student and have been working part
time on tele sales making outbound calls to prospective students of the university.
Prior to going to America I worked as a Teaching Assistant for 5 years which involved
organising and supervising activities for children of all abilities encouraging and
ensuring their participation, health, safety and welfare and dealing with a range of
administrative tasks.

I am an enthusiastic, hard-working, team player, often described as a natural leader

and capable of working on my own initiative. I have a competitive nature and always
strive to succeed in all areas of work. I have excellent communication skills and
quickly establish good working relationships with all people I need to liaise with.

I am physically fit and hold a full clean driving licence.
