Summary

I am currently a General Manager working for a subcontractor that specialises in civil/foundation works including piling, anchoring, shotcrete, capping beam and excavation. I am seeking a position with a large company such as Buildcorp to accept new challenges in this industry with the intention of furthering my passion for this industry in a larger work setting.

I am a detailed-orientated team player with strong organisational skills and the ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy. In my experience as a Contracts Administrator and General Manager, I have been apart of a team who successfully handled over 200 projects worth between $80,000.00 to $4,000,000.00 for top-tier Head Contractors. During this time, I have managed, handled and dealt with Head Contractors, engineers and consultants. My key roles and responsibilities during this time can be referenced in my employment history below. I would like to now take in a role in working for a larger company such as Buildcorp who deals with subcontractors.

My current skill sets, strengths, experience and expectations are well matched for your company who I believe has a great team culture and passionate team ethics.
