Summary

My name is Sebastian skinner you can call me Seb, I’m a very hard keen worker who can handle almost anything you throw at me. I’ve been working full time insurance building since I left school in 2020 travelling up and down the east coast from Ballina NSW, Gold Coast QLD to as far as Rockhampton QLD. In that time I have worked my way to be leading hand and running crews which I was very appreciative about. I have experienced everything from roofing, scaffolding and carpentry. Some other skills I’ve experienced is performing site cuts in a 12 ton drott to driving bobcats and small excavators landscaping.
