Introduction:
After completing my FDA ‘Fashion’ Degree at the Arts University College Bournemouth, I have been working as the Women’s Wear Buyer at Richmond Classics Bournemouth. Here I have gained some invaluable experiences and skills, I have had a great deal of responsibility placed upon me and I feel that I have managed this successfully and with a professional manner and have some great references as a result.
I now feel that I am ready for a new challenge. I want to continue my passion for Buying but within a larger company, where I can develop my skills further and take on a larger role, greater responsibilities and future prospects.

Career Overview:
While I was at school and in between college, I had several jobs working in Bournemouth in the retail trade.
I have lived in London for three years previously where I have worked for Kurt Geiger with Selfridges & Co, Oxford Street.
I have worked for Richmond Classics Designer Retail Store for 5 years, where I have been working as the Women’s Wear Buyer for 3 years.
