About Me

Originally from Christchurch New Zealand, I am a 24 year old who moved to Brisbane nearly 4 years ago.

Im currently seeking employment as an excavator operator due to my current workplace only having the availability for a part time roll.

Im young, eager, honest and hardworking. I'm looking for long term employment with a company where I have the opportunity to grow my career around good people. Please have a read through my resume and if you think Id be a good match contact me at any time!

Please note, due to the fact I have mainly been working on private property, I do not have my excavator ticket. However I can obtain it ASAP within my 2 week notice timeframe so I am licensed before commencing work.

Kind regards. James
