I have good communication skills and I have the ability to prioritise and complete the task in a safe and timely manner. I strongly believe in the power of team working and understand the importance of supporting everyone specially the junior members of the group. Learning is a continuous process and it’s beneficial for my improvement so I’m motivated to upgrade my knowledge in ways I will be supported. If I will be given the opportunity to perform this role I can assure that I will do my best to uphold the standard to its highest potential and support the trust in every way I can.
