Summary

I am a reliable, consistent Roofer with 5 years of experience. Adept at light and heavy equipment setup, worksite organization and team collaboration. Dedicated to top-notch and long-lasting work. Throughout my 5 years I was able to gain a Certificate 3 in roof tiling. This allowed me to become confident at all my duties and take on more responsibility, including training new apprentices. While I have gained a lot of experience and knowledge within the roofing and hospitality industry, I am looking to further my skill set and gain experience in a new field. I am a dedicated hard worker who is eager to learn.
