Summary

I'm interested in increasing my skills and qualifications through my employment.

I’m a highly motivated and safety-conscious individual seeking an entry-level apprenticeship opportunity in the mining industry to develop a long-term career. I’m eager to learn, physically fit, and committed to contributing positively to a team in a demanding operational environment. I possess a strong work ethic, a keen eye for detail, and a genuine interest in the mining industry.

I'm willing to go above and beyond the required tasks to support the team's needs. I'm a highly motivated employee with a desire to take on new challenges. I possess exceptional adaptability, and I quickly master new skills.

My interest in the mining sector is deeply rooted, particularly because my father has built a successful career within the industry at Fortescue. Seeing the dedication and opportunities it offers has further solidified my ambition to contribute. I'm particularly eager to secure an entry-level apprenticeship position at Fortescue, as I am keen to develop practical skills and embark on a rewarding career path within this dynamic field.
