My previous Cash Office Manager position became redundant in March 2013. I then took on the secondment role of Admin manager at Morrison’s Catcliffe for six months.In this time I taught myself this new position, standardising processes and key responsibilities, and in December 2013 I was offered the role of Admin Manager.Due to a management restructure in 2016, the role of Admin manager now incorporated the responsibilities of Cash Office; including the same skills although a more advanced, streamlined process and systems which I incorporated.

I first joined Morrison’s in October in 1991 as a part time colleague developing my skills. I was soon promoted to supervisor after just six months, and I then went on to progress to the Cash Office Manager role within the same year. This role involved was full control of the stores cash handling, as well as the Petrol Station.I was accountable for four to six colleagues across the store over this time, providing training and coaching of the processes required for that department whilst continually assessing their needs, as well as the department. My role was to ensure that all cash processes were completed accurately; effectively plan and organise daily routines; and maintain and manage the balancing of three cash machines (ATM’s).Whilst based in the Parkgate store in Rotherham, I travelled to other stores to train new colleagues and supported new store openings. This job gave me great satisfaction, going above and beyond and staying until any problems that occurred, or questions were resolved.
