Responsible for the daily running of the store required me to be the person in control (PIC), ensuring the management of staff, customers and external contractors are at the forefront of all operations. This role allowed me to better understand the complexities that come with leading a team, putting into practice the theoretical knowledge learnt at university into the business to better operational activities.Durning my tenure as a store we have seen a reduction of leakage and increase in stock accuracy. Going from what was previously 55% to upwards of the mid 80's. This was attained through better implementation of store activities and increasing in staff that are now trained to do more complex activities. This not only helped share workload but allowed others in the store to develop beyond what they were previously capable of. The transferable type of leadership style is something I’ve always wanted to adopt, as it has seen develop to the type of person I am today, feeling a sense of gratitude in helping those in and around me to develop as I do myself.Overall, my experience as team leader has allowed me to further my leadership and organisational skills within a fast paced environment, with the hope I can take forward these skills learnt into other business and apply myself accordingly.

During my time at Halfords I was employed as a colleague team member, concurrent with my studies at university. During my time there I was employed to serve and stock the store, however, given my pervious experience I was soon used in various different activities away from the typical customer service role. Again being entrusted with counts, planograms, receiving deliveries allowing me to become a well rounded worker who worked closely with positions above.Whist jugging both my studies and work, COVID-19 curtailed my employment at the business during the early winter of 2020, however I returned there once normality had resumed and was employed on a temporary basis at peak periods of trading (Summer and Christmas of the same year) resuming my normal duties. Due to the global pandemic this significantly increased footfall within the store and as such there was an influx of customers attend to. This lead the store to hit targets not seen before with the store eventually being crowed as the highest performing store in the north west.My time at Halfords was enjoyable and different to say the least, but the experiance allowed me to adapt to change from external circumstances and see the effects that’s such circumstances can have on a business. In the early year of 2021 I left to focus on the last year of my university degree to give me in the best possible grade.

At Wickes I was employed as a colleague team member, originally employed to serve on the tills I was soon moved towards other business activities on the shop floor such as planograms, counts, receiving deliveries and administrative duties. Whilst experienced at both roles I excelled at the latter and became an integral part of the business, being given tasks higher than what was expected of me. Working closely with my superiors allowed to me develop a better sense of responsibility and understanding of business tasks and how it operated, conveying knowledge from superiors to my other team members, establishing me as a well respected and reliable team member, someone who you would go to first when management were busy. This trust coupled with my willingness to learn a range of business activities allowed me to divert from usual actives and focus on the more important jobs such as the counts, stock take and planograms. As such I often counted upwards of £200,000 worth of stock on a single shift, making sure stock accuracy was as high as possible in order to help to track leakage, in the hope I could improve business actives going forward. As such, when the annual count came round this allowed me to track whether our work had come to fruition. With a stock accuracy percentage in the top 5% of the company I took this with great pride and accomplishment, demonstrating a care and attention to the work carried out by myself and my coworkers.This experience at Wickes allowed me to become well adept in the retail environment at a young age and showed hard work does pay off, shaping the type of worker I am today.
