About Jayne Hardcastle

I'm an experienced Finance & Credit Control Manager, Office Manager and Executive Assistant/PA, but there's more to me than the job titles imply. Career Profile Initially training as an Executive Assistant/PA & bookkeeper, after leaving college I took on a variety of temp and permanent roles, eventually becoming freelance in February 1997. Moving between clients taught me to rapidly pick up new systems in new industries, enabling me to become an asset very quickly after starting a new role. My experience covers a wide range of industries, from start-ups through family businesses to multinational corporations and I bring a wealth of experience to the table as Finance & Credit Control Manager, Office Manager and Executive Assistant/PA. Over the years, I have worked in and run offices of varying sizes within technology, finance, design, media, production, music, fashion, construction, healthcare, pharmaceutical and sales.
