Edit your address out, but leave mobile in?

Do you really need to say (EU - no work permit needed) ? Maybe the island UK really is that dumb...

I'm not in IT, I'll leave the rest for others. (But I personally hate "headed up" a team, why can't you head a team?)

Well, the theory was that noone can find my scooby from my mobile number, but can still call me if they have a job for me

Regarding the EU bit, I continously have agents asking me if I need a permit, so I thought I should leave it in... Might consider taking it out though..

CV is fine. I wouldn,t worry about the address as most recruitment comapnies take this info off anway before it is sent to a client. Would however only use one type of text.size and just bold where required. Just my opinion as a rec consultant

Your opening paragraph has too many sentences starting with "I ...". Other than that, a well-written and concise CV.

The IT stuff meant nothing to me (oh Vienna) but your summary of IT experience makes sense, other than the "C to a high level". If that's acceptable IT-speak, then fine, but it sounds just a little vague.
