Summary

I am an experienced mechanical technician, who qualified after completing a 4 year apprenticeship in all large construction and maintenance vehicles and plant. I then moved into a job with NOV Elmar and worked my way into Service and Rental. I have gained a lot of experience and knowledge from here with hydraulic and pneumatic systems. I am not afraid to ask questions or to try and resolve any problems myself. I enjoy a challenge and I am a hard worker. I am always looking forward to improving my knowledge and expanding my skills.
