ABOUT WILL HACKETT
I am an experienced customs trade adviser seeking opportunities with companies that value my expertise and strong work ethic. I take immense pride in delivering top-notch performance in every task I undertake. My motivation knows no bounds, and I am equally adept at leading teams or working independently. My key strengths lie in adaptability, flexibility, and a focused approach to my work. Additionally, I possess strong emotional intelligence, enabling me to forge meaningful connections with colleagues and stakeholders alike. Beyond my professional pursuits, I have a fervent passion for motorcycles, particularly classic British bikes, and my beloved Triumph serves as my primary mode of transport. Music is another interest, and I have actively participated in various festivals, including stewarding at Glastonbury for several years. My love for travel has taken me across Europe and Asia during my 20s, and I remain eager to explore more of the world. Recently, I have settled down and purchased my first house with my partner. Renovating the garden and engaging in DIY projects have become enjoyable pastimes. After a productive day, I like to unwind with a refreshing cold beer. In my free time, I also indulge in cat sitting and caring for other small animals in my local village, offering my services to those in need. 🦁
