Summary
Hi, my names Tim and i turned 30 at the end of last year. I currently work as an Asphalter for Downer in Northern parts of Melbourne.
I have always worked in physically labour roles since i left school, much of the work being construction labourer duties or plant operator. I first started on a tunnel project as a shot Crete monitor for Ground Probe, (mining equipment company) They hired me to assist them on site to get data for there machine and provide it to the project for calculations. The machine, which was set out like a surveying model on a tripod and could capture live data of the amount of shotcrete applied on a surface. I would then build up reports and provide it to the site engineers for reviewing.
I was then hired by the superintendent of that project as a tw3 excavator operator and worked at the face and oviliseation re work team. I worked mostly as a tunnel worker as well as becoming jumbo assistants and shotcrete assistants, driving moxys, agri trucks and operating ewp.
I also worked on the Sydney metro Marrickville site and was hired to work on the cross passage development. I would operate various plant, 13 ton digger, jaycon agri, dump truck and work alongside the Brokk and its various attachments ( drilling, rock crusher) and occasionally work on the TBM. I am willing to commit to rotating shifts and flexible hours (overtime if required.) I am physically capable of performing any manual work and if i havent yet been trained i am willing to be trained for the required job. Im currently studying my cert 4 in building and construction in my own time. I understand the importance to safety and the concerns working near unsupported ground. i have proven expierience working with moving plant and high risk work. i have performed my work safely and have shown that i can take instructions and commit to the job.
