About Jack Edmondson:
I am a confident communicator, who engages well with people of all ages. I previously worked at Dobbies Garden Centre for 18 months, where my main responsibilities were working on the checkouts, restocking and watering and maintaining the plants. During this time I was also a referee. I had to manage difficult situations sometimes and draw on my knowledge of the game and my good communication skills to address any issues. I had to be organised and prepared and gain the respect of the players and the coaches. At school, I gained GCSEs and A-Levels to a high standard and I am currently studying Geography at the University Of Liverpool. In my spare time I go to the gym, regularly play football and golf.
