Summary

I am currently working in groundworks and before this employment working self employed as a general builder. These experiences have taught me to pick up new skills quickly in order to be able to complete work quickly and to a high standard. With my current employment I have started from the very beginning of a new housing estate which has taught me the fundamentals of groundworks and given me a great understanding of the processes of the construction industry. I have understood the huge importance of safe systems of work and always insure that I follow health and safety procedures.

I am an athletic individual with a strong work ethic, I am highly proficient in various sports and possess great physical strength & stamina. Continuously striving to enhance my athletic abilities and broaden my range of skills and experiences, I bring a valuable physical prowess that can be applied to any physically demanding job role.

Skills

I have a CSCS green card qualifying me to work on construction sites, as well as a forward tipping dumper ticket for up to 10 tonnes


I have numerous experiences with moderate to highly dangerous activities and sports so I feel comfortable learning to do high risk tasks in order to further my responsibilities in my job roles For example I have some experience in climbing and abseiling with harness work so operating around heights and difficult terrain comes as no issue to me partly due to my physical fitness


My communication skills have been fine tuned from working in customer service and team-based roles, so I can clearly and effectively communicate problems, solutions and methods/ procedures to avoid mishaps and complete tasks quickly and safely This also allows me to understand the role required of me and my responsibilities clearly in order to avoid confusion


Due to my experience working in domestic building sites, I have knowledge of tools and equipment, ranging from power tools, hand-held manual tools and equipment such as ladders and hop-ups and the procedures around safe usage This also encompasses the care, safety and maintenance of these tools and the importance of prolonging their use in a safe manner
