I am looking to follow a career in conservation and have been gearing my efforts towards this goal. My work at the museum has been invaluable and I am seen as an important part of the team, and would like to expand my knowledge of preservation and conservation. I have also been helping in the stores and have a good grasp of what is needed to keep them in shape. This will be followed by a series of manual handling and organizational tasks to relocat some of the collection. I have full experience in office administration and ran Sage accounts for my last employer. I have many transferable skills from previous employment.
