Summary

Reliable laborer ready for challenging work in outdoor environments. My work history has enabled me to gain experience in manual labour such as building retaining walls, concreting, brick and block laying, manual excavation, demolishing and general landscaping tasks. I am seeking a career change to the mines industry. I am reliable and hard worker, a fast learner and will be excited for a new challenge.

I have a Certificate III in Landscaping, White Card Certificate and Certificate in Working at Heights and within Confined Spaces. I also have a current Queensland Drivers License.
