Michael Roussos

Melbourne,VIC

Summary


My name is Michael Roussos,

I aspire to develop my construction management skills, with the goal of contributing to large-scale projects. My strong work ethic paired with my ability to learn quickly and absorb information, provides me with the confidence that I am a strong candidate that will be an asset to your team.

Construction experience

I am currently an undergraduate in 3rd year study in a Bachelor of construction management (honours) degree. I began this degree part-time (as I was working full time as a café manager).

I have completed a certificate I & II in Building and construction (carpentry) and undertaken jobs that included wall framing, concreting, formworks and landscaping.

I have experience in a fast-paced hospitality-based environment, where precision and efficiency is key. Specifically, undertaking roles such as manager I developed necessary leadership skills to ensure I was a well-rounded leader. I gained the respect of my coworkers by maintaining professionalism, work ethic, fairness, time management and meeting deadlines.

I have a passion for construction and a burning desire to learn and become a more skilled professional in the industry.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my background, skills, and certifications make me an eligible fit for this role. Please feel free to contact me at 0478508020 or via email at michael.roussos4@gmail.com to arrange a meeting. Sincerely, Michael Roussos Bachelor of Construction Management (Honours).
