Summary

My previous skills within the building industry I feel will compliment the position of yard person for C T Baker Ltd as i have previous experience driving machinery although i do not hold a forklift certificate. My product knowledge is also a valuable asset.

I take pride in my work and consider myself a hardworking, reliable tidy individual with a friendly demeanor.


My reasons for wanting to go back into fulltime employment are wanting stability and a more regular income.
