To whom it may concern

Re: Duncan Brooking (Personal Reference)

I first met Duncan 2014 when I offered him full time employment at

Marshall Profiling. I was at that point of time employed in an H.R position.

I have subsequently retired from all full-time employment.

At that point in time Duncan had relocated to Hamilton from his home

town of Gisborne. Duncan had explained to me his reasons for relocating was to help with schooling and work opportunities for his growing family.

It also offered him the opportunity to develop his personal interests in

Martial Arts specifically focused to helping young children to focus on

extracurricular activities. I followed this with a lot of interest.

Duncan showed extensive work experience in site labouring, demolition

and truck driving, on this basis he was offered employment on a three

month trial period. Duncan very quickly became noticeable due to his

willingness to work He actively went about his chores in a diligent manner

showing a willingness to please. At the end of his trial period he was very

quickly offered a full time position.

Duncan started his employment with our team on the laser cutting

machine that he adapted well to.

He then showed his willingness to transfer to Dispatch, again Duncan

showed his willingness to succeed when the opportunity presented itself.

we offered him the new role of Dispatch/Driver, this was a critical role as it

was an integral customer service position. He fulfilled this extremely well

and was weld liked and respected by our customers.

Aside from work I find Duncan an interesting person, he has openly

discussed with me his early years in rural Gisborne hunting and fishing

and of course Martial Arts. Duncan Is a person I trust he presents himself

extremely well, is confident, proud, very open and forthright he is

dedicated to his work and very supportive and respectful to his Co-

workers and Management. I would have no reason to doubt or question

his integrity.

I personally value Duncan as a good person, I will have no problem in

recommending Duncan to any future employer, as well I would never

hesitate to work with him in a mentoring role to help him achieve the

goals he would aspire to.

I wish Duncan every success
