Summary

Since my move to QLD, i have had exposure to a verity of elements including, Civil construction and Asbestos removal whilst completing a complex fit out for the Department Of Education Queensland. I am now on a new adventure in hopes to expanding my knowledge in the construction industry as a site manager/foreman and secure a role within a dynamic company leading the way in commercial construction. Within the company I would be seeking expansion of knowledge and opportunities to enhance my career and move in to a Project manager posion in the near future.

My carpentry based experience since completing my apprenticeship in Otago, New Zealand in 2019, has seen me working on numerous projects in residential and commercial building including, alterations, extensions, new builds, and fit out. My first step away from the tools was managing the interior fit out for stage 2 and 3 at Mt Aspiring College, build total of $35 million where I had a very hands on role in ensuring clients, designers and employees are delivering completed projects to the very highest of standards, on time and on budget.

I offer commitment, dedication and a great work ethic, I’m looking to share my knowledge with a company who are wanting to invest in the future.
