Nicholas Lavin

A highly motivated and fast learning business management graduate with an in-depth knowledge and passion for business administration. 

Highly effective employee who thrives while working within teams, which has been proven throughout of my academic studies where I received a first-class accreditation during group presentations, and throughout of my working life. With a distinction within a CPD accredited business administration course and a vast knowledge of using Microsoft packages, which I have gained from completing an ECDL course and using these packages daily, I believe I can add value in any office setting. Furthermore, with a great eye for detail and a confident and professional approach while communicating with an array of people, I believe I can complete all tasks required to a high standard. 

Currently looking to utilise the skills and experience I possess to be a successful business administrator and I believe your company will allow for me to gain the relevant experience to grow and thrive within the industry.
