Summary

I started my plumbing and gas fitting apprenticeship in late 2015 and I haven't looked back. Now fully qualified, I have worked across numerous jobs including commercial maintenance, renovations, and specialist piping installation. I consider myself to have a great work ethic, good communication skills and a high level of motivation. I can be trusted to work autonomously, and I also enjoy being part of a dedicated, fun, proactive team. I have relocated to Melbourne and began work in the service department at O'shea plumbing. This works included being the first face the customers are met with and providing estimates for the customer through on site quoting and organization of the materials and coordination with team members to conduct the works.
