Kevin Allan Email and Phone Number

I work full-time at the head office Halo ARC in Barnham inputting data onto their BMS system. I used to handle claims for over 7 years but now work in the Technical department.We mainly work with our many sites to help with issues, answer enquiries they have, and assist in any way to ensure repairs are done in a timely and proficient manner. When not helping sites, we also keep up-to-date with the industry by keeping up with trends and new repair techniques. Personally, i'm also learning new programs and attending courses to expand my own knowledge.

I worked part-time as a cleaning operative of Rentokil Initial Facilities Services. I worked a few hours every weekday morning cleaning the two Network Rail depots at Barnham station. The role allowed me to enhance skills developed in previous roles such as my organisational, interpersonal and time management skills as the time I had was limited. It could be challenging cleaning both depots in the time I had so keeping to a self-appointed schedule was essential in achieving the goal of cleaning both depots to the highest possible standard.

I voluntarily worked as a gardener. I maintained the garden at their head office by pulling weeds, cutting the lawns and making it look tidy. The role improved my organisational and work skills as I did this by myself, so it’s up to me how much I accomplish on any given day.

I voluntarily worked as a Creative Support Officer. During my time there, I learnt how to work as part of a team and about adaptability as I had to work a number of roles. I helped transform a space in the Bargate Centre into the Creative Hub, their head place for activities. This included doing handyman work, cleaning, heavy lifting and moving of equipment. Once the Hub was open, i worked there at weekends welcoming people to the Hub and assisting them if they needed help. I was also part of the team that helped organise the Contact festival and assisted on the day, such as manning stalls and helping to setup and pack up. These roles within a role helped me become organised, work as part of a team and on my own, and it enhanced my customer service skills as I interacted with people of all ages.
