Summary
I am a young energetic Zimbabwean civil engineer who has recently relocated to the United Kingdom. I am very excited and eager to put the knowledge that I have acquired during the course of my studies and work experience to acquire a job. I am a dependable person who is great at time management and I am very flexible in my working hours. I am self motivated and I have gained experience in working alone and also as part of a team during my internships and apprenticeship at Fossil Contracting and Nharo Fabricators. Multitasking has inevitably become a part of my skillset during the course of my learning. I have a great sense of humour although i take my work very seriously. During my time in Zimbabwe i also specialized in CAD software and technical drawing, with strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities. With the current education system, I was able to acquire a broad and dynamic skillset, from cooking and washing dishes to being a site engineer and managing several project with minimal supervision.
