Paul Parkin - Volunteer and Resume

Voluntary Work

I’m a conscientious, reliable, hard working and committed to the work I do. I can both work as a team and on my own; I’m also able to make individual decisions. I believe that the experience, skills and reputation that I have built over the years would be an advantage and essential to your place.

In spare time and between work I have done a variety of voluntary work that enable me to use some or all my skills to some extent, learning new ones and expanding my knowlege and experiance as I go. Looking for new challenge and experience in new areas and areas of interest.
As you will see below I have done a number of voluntary work in a variety of areas and am willing to help in any way.
I'm willing to offer my services on a voluntary basis to help gain experience and build my portfolio.
