Skills
I'm offering
I have had a very varied career but two threads feature strongly, software development and cuisine. I am particularly good engaging with people on all levels, an invaluable skill when it comes to requirements gathering and ongoing development. I feel I am very good at creating solutions that address the issue, problem or expectations of clients.
I pride myself on being comfortable with people regardless of their position, be they a senior figure or 'at the coal face', this often has resulted in the production of better software that's fit for purpose. I am complimented on my laid back manner, this puts people at ease and aids efficient working.
I tackle new technologies, methods and problem solving with gusto, always keen to build on my knowledge and wisdom.
