Summary
I am detail orientated and personable individual, looking for work in the field of engineering. With years of experience in a variety of different roles including farming, construction, engineering, machining and fabricator/welder, I have a diverse skill set which I look forward to applying in a new role. My qualifications as an at work fire warden and first aider also means I am familiar with taking on important responsibilities in the work place. Outside of a work environment I play rugby and am an avid scouter, which I believe has developed my perseverance and team building skills. I believe that all of these experiences have moulded me into an individual that would be an ideal fit for the role of fabricator welder at Babcock.
