Summary

I have recently returned to Australia, having worked in the UK for two years as a pest control technician. I had the opportunity to travel all over the UK; the job was described as "drive in, drive out."

I got to work and experience the whole of the UK, working in places such as London, Glasgow, Bristol, and Liverpool.

I am now keen to get back into the heavy mechanical industry. I have always enjoyed taking things apart to see how they were assembled in the first place.

Having had a couple of false starts with apprenticeships due to the onset of COVID, I would like to pursue a career in this industry.

I am a fast learner, prompt, and not scared of grafting.

I have a great sense of humor and love to work well in a team and also autonomously
