I have good knowledge of all aspects of the kitchen business including design, manufacture and sales. I am competent making designs using Autokitchen software and I also have basic knowledge of Articad and Fusion systems. I also use Coreldraw for more bespoke designs and complex cabinets.
 
I am comfortable dealing with a wide range of trade and retail customers and have a natural ability to put people at ease and gain an understanding of their requirements.
 
For the last 3 years I have been designing and selling kitchens through two companies, one as sole owner and most recently as a partnership. I have several years experience in furniture design and sales, starting from a family business set up in 1990 in Bulgaria, producing solid wood furniture exclusively for the UK market.
 
I have a good knowledge of the UK kitchen industry and have established working partnerships with various suppliers of cabinets, worktops, accessories and appliances. I attended the KBB exhibition in March this year to keep updated with some of the latest products. I am also familiar with current market trends, particularly in the traditional / classic kitchen styles.
 
I am currently looking for a full-time sales and design role with an established bespoke kitchen manufacturer / retailer who would offer the opportunity to progress within the company.
