Summary
I have been involved in the structural steel industry, as a Fitter/Welder for the past 8 years and counting.
I have been sub-contracting for the last few years, and I am looking towards for full time employment with job security, as i feel i have had enough of sub-contracting with traveling around different places so often.
Looking to optimize and utilise my current experience obtained over the years and continue to grow with the company.
That gives me an opportunity to continue to grow.
