Education and employment most recent first

"After two years of working there, I am put in charge of weekend deliveries." - grammar. Also sounds like you only do that as you've been there the longest not because you do it well.

Speak more about your own personal involvement in the March 03 job. You've done this well on the other two.

"Member or a car owners club" - member of. Caps are also all over the place in that sentence. Only required on the L of listening and not elsewhere. 5-a-side.

"My aim is to find employment in an environment with high standards of productivity" - bit vague?

"My aim is to find employment in an environment with high standards of productivity"

Reword to something like, -My aim is to find employment in a challenging and dynamic environment which enables me to utilise my creative personality.
