I've worked in retail for over 24 years and 20 years in senior management. I've worked for the UKs largest food retailer for 10 years and most recently for the UKs largest homeware retailer.During my successful senior management career I've store managed in stores from 5000sq ft to 40,000sq ft as well as Multi-Store Area & regional management.I pride my self on my strong leadership and organisation skills to drive customer service, people development, standards and KPIs.Over the last 10 years I have been involved in many charity challenges to raise money for for company charities, including 100 mile bike ride in 1 day, 2 marathons in 2 days over the Sahara Desert, several 100km hikes and 400km cycle from Vietnam to Cambodia in 2023. We have raised over £20k through these events as a collective.My other passion is my family run cleaning business that we started in 2021, we have grown a solid client base with a team of employees covering commercial and domestic cleaning services. Since early 2023 I have become involved in Worcester Raiders FC (step 5 non league) setting up the Kids football academy, running their under 7s team, joined the club committee and most recently taken the role of Vice Chairman of the club.
