Australia

I have always had a passion for clothes and the Clothing Industry but not until this stage in my life, did I feel that I could involve that passion in a career.

I have had managerial opportunities in various fields, ranging from the Building Industry to Retail involving Homewares and Gardenware.

I am now ready to embark on a career in Retail Management, specifically involving Women's Clothing.

I have worked as a Casual Sales Assistant for The Pretty Girl Fashion Group at their Wombat store in Charlestown, NSW since early November, 2010 and I have achieved gross Sales Figures of $42,122.14 and nett Sales Figures of $32,863.00, working only approximately 62 days, during that period .

I sucessfully managed a Building Company in Qld., Tom Lane Building Services Pty. Ltd. for 20 years and was Sales Manager for Decor Pots and Homewares in Sunnybank, Brisbane for 2 years.
