MANDY BAXTER07713273031Pollini92@hotmail.co.uk Profile In October 2019 I finally gave up retail after 40 years! Retail changed so much to the point it was no longer a pleasure to do . It became nothing but stress and daunting . Working for myself when I had my own boutique was passion which unfortunately after 8 years and the recession I lost. Working for others at a time when retail high street consumers were turning to buy cheaper on the internet became a nightmare with the pressure in upper management still wanting the same income as they had years previously got used to and it was no longer there . I took at the age of 55 the decision to have complete career change to home care and am delighted I did!! It has become a passion to me to give the vulnerable the best possible home care I possibly can and the job rewards me in ways I never dreamt of ! Moral of the story is don’t be afraid to jump ! Just do it and be happy 😊Workers for a couple of different companies selling fashion in management positions and also worked as Sales Consultant/ floor management in fashion retail for a family owned business SD Kells. Having spent several years as a manager in my own business and manager for other employers in their business. I wanted to work for a company who cared and knew my name hence the drop in position which I was happy to do, as a management position was unavailable at the time. My goal....to work back up to management position when one becomes available. Have been a retail shop manager for Marie Curie for just over a year which is very challenging and rewarding at the same time. As much as I enjoy this role I am thinking it is time for a completely new challenge and change of career. I have spent over 30 years in retail in total. I wish to develop my skills of Connecting with people, my marketing , social media and PR skills. Spending the previous 7 1/2 years owning a fashion boutique and previous experience in retail management.I was responsible for all aspects of the boutique from buying stock, merchandising, managing accounts. Trained and developed staff to a high standard.A proven track record working in different types of environments, analysing problems and thinking on my feet to solve difficult situations. .

Listed skills include Advertising, Fashion, Marketing, Marketing Strategy, and 25 others.
