About Rebecca O'Farrell:

Hello, I am 25 and based in Bristol. For the last 4 years I have been running my own ceramics business and teaching courses. I have years of experience in hospitality and retail too. I thrive in a busy, social environment and enjoy customer facing roles. I always strive to put all my energy and motivation into the task at hand. I want to diversify my work life by finding more creative avenues and places to be part of.

Experience

I am a proactive and artistic individual with experience in

 

  • Teaching
  • Studio hand/assistant work
  • Running my own business
  • Management and customer service
  • Hospitality and retail
  • Volunteer work

 

I have spent time working in Australia, Japan, Amsterdam and the UK which has led me to develop interpersonal, management and language skills.

Most recently I have been teaching adult courses at the Bristol Folk house and running my own business. I am looking to diversify my routine into more fast pace, customer facing roles.

General Skills

All my previous roles have led me to develop incredible people skills and time management. Being self employed has given me the ability to motivate myself and work independently. Some niche skills I have developed are:

  • Team management
  • Visual merchandising
  • Customer service
  • Training team members
  • Nursing/Care work

Education

Most recently I undertook a short apprenticeship with Rose Nisbet, a ceramicist. I attended the University of Amsterdam in 2019-2020 to do a bachelor of business administration, but this was cut short due to the pandemic.
