Experience Summary

Thank you for taking the time to read this document and i hope that we may between us find some common ground.Following employment when i was much younger with Wella in their salon deparment and a foray into the aluminium business,, I was employed for over twenty seven years until redunancy due to downsizing by Unilever Plc in their personal care department,specialising in the hair beauty business the company being known by several different names over the course of the years.I was on the road for all of that time in various sales positions being responsible for independent groups and also calling on multiples and special accounts.Since redundancyI have run my own sales agency representing several companies not only with their direct sales but also advising on the marketing of new products.i also now am involved in merchandising and demostratiing in store which i think my sales experience allows to use flair in talking to customers and intersting them in the products being shown.I am also involved in mystery shopping campaigns.I hope this has been of interest to all who may read it View my contact details, availability, and stats.
