ROBERT THOMPSON8 Richmond Close, Lordswood, Chatham, Kent. ME5 8YHMOB: 07754422117Email: Railway@live.co.ukI am a friendly and approachable self motivated organiser, highly skilled in communicating with the public and my colleagues. I enjoy working both alone and with a team. I pride myself on being able to liaise with colleagues and managers on all levels. My work history has installed the virtues of self motivation and honesty and the importance of customer satisfaction. I am strongly committed to the concept of continuous improvement and thrive on achieving the highest levels of quality and service.Though I have had many hobbies now I would rather spend my spare time with my grandchildren which bring my wife and I more joy than anything else. We tend to only find time for hobbies on holidays where we love to travel to anywhere that is warm and has clear calm water so that we can enjoy snorkelling kayaking and paddle-boarding.EXPERIENCECarpet GiantAssistant Manager July 2022 – present day• On average exceed set personal sales targets by 12%• Achieve highest monthly sales figures within four Kent stores consistently• Cover store managers in times of absence• Hold the record for total sales value over four Kent stores for the last 12months• Mentoring junior sales advisors Platypus FlooringDirector 2019 – 2023• Selling and fitting Carpet, LVT, Laminate, Vinyl• Floor sanding and sealing• Checkatrade standard maintained at 10/10• Due to a knee injury retired from companySantone CarpetsHead Fitter 2016 – 2019• Fitting all flooring for company• Training new members of staff and apprentices Railway Hotel / Spinakers BarLandlord 2006 – 2016• Customer relations• Hiring staff and training• Marketing business• Ordering and stocktaking• Arranging private functions and eventsSantone Carpets1988 – 2006 Trainee fitter – Director of company• Hard floor specialist• Installation and planning of commercial and domestic flooring • Specialist on Amtico and Karndean flooring• Specialist in solid wood flooring• Installation of vinyl and commercial Altro wet rooms• Home and store planning, buying and sales• Staff management and trainingEDUCATION1983 – 1988 Walderslade Secondary School for BoysAchieved 8 passing grades GCSE Maths, English, Science, Computer Skills, Technical Drawing, Woodwork, Religious Studies, Physical Education
