Olivia Mellor

I’m 20 years old wanting to work towards something I am passionate about allowing me to blossom in a career I’m interested in. I’ve always been courageous and hardworking towards everything I’ve achieved in life and have the confidence to try new things and put myself out of my comfort zone.

Firstly, I worked at Sainsburys as an online shop assistant allowing me to have set shifts per week giving me the stability of my first job. Throughout working here I was able to learn to work fast and abide by the rules to ensure the safety of myself and others taking precautions. With me being 18 at the time it meant I could also work unsociable hours during the night which I was also willing to do allowing me to work a different variation of shifts.

Leading onto my most current position as a bar assistant in Sheffield City Centre, I was able to work in a busy overwhelming environment once again having to follow and maintain set regulations to ensure the safety of other. Throughout this job I was given more responsibility and was extremely independent at the most important time ensuring that all customers were pleased and happy with their service.

I have all my basic GCSE’s, including my maths and English which I achieved 4/5 (C’s) through studying at Yewlands Academy with also achieving top grades at college in my extended diploma and I achieved these through the Sheffield Wednesday Community Programme.
