Adam Richardson
Rope access electrician
Mosman Park,WA
Summary
Tireless and focused with over 11 years in the commercial electrical installation scene, aswell as over a year and 1000+ hours in the rope access industry, I have gained a vast amount of knowledge in both fields. As a British electrician I was in charge of overseeing the complete installation of cable management systems, cabling and testing from start to finish on poplular high street chains and with often tight deadlines. I came to Perth, WA in march 2023 and have been working towards converting my qualifications over to a WA A grade electrical license which I will have obtained by late august 2024. I am looking forward to opening up new doorways in rope access, electrical or preferably a combination of the two in the near future.
I'm an efficient team collaborator contributing knowledge of equipment maintenance and emergency protocols. Skilled at following directions with no supervision and committed to reliability.
I have excellent communication skills and work well with others, while able to make independent decisions.
I am able to meet job demands and deadlines through diligent work-ethic and dedication to quality whilst bringing a solid understanding of mechanical troubleshooting and electrical installation techniques.
